OK, I installed the Efficiency coil finally. No real change, but there wasn't really a problem other than knowing that there was a broken part in the set that could cause damage to the set that could be avoided. I didn't work the set long as I still haven't wired in an amp meter and checked the cathode current.
I did notice a bit of hissing in the H.V. cage that led me to play with the slug a little. I could adjust a little and it would go away along with the on screen jitters that come with corona discharge. The discharge is very light; not a loud hiss or snapping like I have heard. I turned the H.V. adjustment down a little and it didn't make any difference. I need to get a meter on this puppy.
I have heard of moisture collecting in long dormant sets and noise from the cage being an issue until the set works long enough to dry out well.
