I like the CTC-16, very easy to work on. I routinely replace the HOT coupling caps (think there are two a .01 and a .0068 IIRC), the 1kv caps on vert and audio out transformers (white ceramic tube caps). The .0082 1kv vert out plate cap. I do the 1kv just cause I cant really test them with my cap tester.

Then there are the 3 .01 coupling caps in the 6GU7 grids on the chroma board. the one that is right next to the tube and a power resistor ALWAYS test weak, the other two generally test ok, but I replace them anyway.

I also like to replace the .1 video coupliing cap to the 12xxx video out tube, and the .1 in the AGC (just because AGC is a pain if its not right). All the hi value lower volt brown drops are suspect, but if they sit right next to a heat source I like to check them.
