They are usually a small rectangular plastic component with three legs.
Like these. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Qty-2-ECG-11...item1e9d2e8169
Just getting back to repairing this set...
Are these AFC diodes possible to find? Do I have to find NOS?
The schematic says I can use a: R-2749 or a 2N408.
I included a photo of the diode in the Emerson chassis right now...
Anyone know where I can get one?
