the chassis is ets 908ye. what struck me as very strange is that sams calls for 105ma for the cathode current on each hot and when i had put the meter on and check i got 220ma on each and could not get it down to 105 so now days later i check it again and one tube now shows 115ma and the other 110 and wont go lower and i did nothing to the set to have made anything change. the model is 23rl325bw but this one has the sliding doors in front but it would be the same sams set 856 folder 1. i also checked the b+ voltage which supposed to be 385vdc but is running at 410-412 vdc which i think maybe alittle hi suggesting a possible short somewhere or maybe this is normal for this set, i just dont know at this point. i also tried 3at2 rec, 6bk4,and even took the anode lead off the crt and checked the hv that way.
