Well i bought this tv in poorly working condition. Brought it up with a variac and it semi worked. I had it on its side in stand id built and replaced every cap carefully. It worked beautifully for the ten minutes after that. The next day I turned it on to get a picture and sound for maybe ten seconds, then there was no sound and no picture, nothing but a horizontal line for perhaps three seconds then a dot in the center. This all happened while i was scrambling to turn it off.

Im sorry for such newb question, but we all have to start somewhere. Plus..the tv repair books ive been attempting to read just go over my head.

Though thinking about it..i didnt check the NOS tubes id bought to replace the ones that tested low.
