SUCCESS!!!
Found a blown fuse in the HV cage, and we got full bright screen and a picture!!! The horizontal time base was screwed up (there were 4 images) and as I was adjusting the range control, the vertical sweep eventually gave out. Time to search out the vertical problem, but hey, it's holding HV like a champ with a SUPER bright raster!!!
Odd thing is that we couldn't get sound once we had the HV fuse replaced. Back to the drawing board tomorrow
