Philco roundie
I have a roundie philco that has HV issues. B+ is good, H drive is good, B+ is at the plate of the HOT, cathode current goes to 400ma pretty darn quick but the fly is stone cold. Looking around I noticed the focus coil looks like toast. So does it follow that a shorted focus coil could account for the excessive current?
I suppose if the FLY primary was really badly shorted then it would not get hot, but that should show up with a primary resistance check...which I have not done yet.
