Decided to watch that set for a little while, turned it on, and guess what? No raster. Removed the cover, and everything looked as it was. I didn't even pull the chassis. So now I have to figure that one out too.

#&%@ televisions.
Everything with my restored 8TS30 (mentioned above) is now okay.

I disassembled and tested each resistor in the network, the wirewound in the HV cage, the resistor at the bottom of the 1B3, the doorknob cap, all of the tubes in the HV section, even the picture tube. Found not a damn thing wrong. Put it back together, and for some reason now it works.

Now back on to the problem child at hand
