I for one already have, in your meltdown thread:

John Folsom has much more knowledge on these old sets than I ever will, if you won't listen to him why would you listen to me (again)? Let me reiterate that your experiements are worthy, I simply fail to see what you hope to obatin by operating these parts beyond their rated limits. My 21-CT-55 makes a fine picture indeed when operated at normal current and voltages (when the tuner isn't acting up), just ask anyone who's see it. My intuition tells me that you're more likely to find improvements in picture quality by providing a better signal to the CRT, like gutting the decoder entirely and going with something more modern. I don't think anything you're doing with respect to HV production has anything to do with your results, or any improvement in picture quality. Just my opinion.
