"All" I did today was disconnect the vertical convergence transformer from the
focus pot and its 0.01 uF cap and apply an external 5.2 kV through a 750 Meg resistor and a microammerter in series, for an hour (at room temp of course) to test
the transformer "safely". (Safely for the transformer with the 750 Megs and
safely for me with everything except the 5kV supply sitting on my 1/2 inch glass
dining table.)

It passed. Of course this is not forever at higher temps, but its better than fail.
