If the 13K resistor that is in series with the 47 ohm resistor has drifted high it will cause the HV to be low. You may have to raise the HOT cathode current a little. Maybe to 200ma. Lower is better, but it must stay under 210ma.
ok then the next step will be to check that 13k resistor and if its good then move on to the boosted voltage at the damper and ill use the hv probe. if the voltage is higher at the damper befor L30 but lower after then L30 may be bad so ill check the ohms on that .4 ohms. if this voltage is high then ill move to check caps in the yoke.
