Looks like my theory and hours of watching Shango's videos paid off.
Remember to peel off that beige silicone stuff that he removed in the second video to make sure there is no carbon tracking on the fly it self behind that gross stuff.
Go to the car parts store and get the Permatex UltraGrey. Automotive RTV lacks the acids, as Shango mentioned in the videos, and it can withstand very high voltage, is completely non-conductive. And it can stand up to very high temperatures.
Yeah. Now you see why I passed it on to you for repair. I bought it thinking it was working well and would be simple to keep going. In reality it was very sick and in very bad shape internally and it needed a lot more work then I knew how to give it...
I'm super excited to see it working again and look forward to seeing it in person once it's complete.
I'm glad to see the CTC20 has life. If you can fix or source those coils, I bet it'll come back to life. It's a fairly nice set honestly, I wish it had better care when it was being stored so it would have survived better. Makes me feel even better that it works, you'll get the cash you asked for. You got a Roundy that works with a good CRT and a lot of potential, and a couple other bonuses I am tossing in for all the time you put in to this thing for me that I think you'll like =)
