Am I going to go nuts getting this set to work?

I doubt its a hybrid, even the 13" set was SS that year (G-line).
It will have the regulating transformer/cap. IIRC as you crank it up
it will pulsate then sudently work at abt 85 V at full power.
I would just plug it in. As far as other problems go its the easiest
old color TV to deal with & parts still abound. It only takes the
slightest knowledge to walk through any problem.
