Important update:

Steve has informed me that he found a fault in the deflection yoke- a broken wire. This is what was causing the low HV issue, and now the chassis is making a healthy 17kv! This is a very good sign that the flyback is indeed still good, and bodes well for a go at chassis restoration. Still left to figure out is the regulator tube, and how it functions. If the regulator can be made to work, it's looking like we may have a go at a working CPA receiver before the year is out. Naturally we still need to nail down the subcarrier frequency, as that will determine our course in the rest of this.
