Thank you so much for all the detailed information. Yes, no breaker trip but set stays on with sound. Easy fix? Share more?
Usually the high voltage rectifier tube (usually a 1B3GT or a 1G3GT on most of these sets either way its the same tube and are interchangeable) just needs to be replaced more than likely is what they're saying, I have several of them myself in my tube stash and if you google vacuum tubes online you'll find several people who sell NOS tubes online one place being Antique Electronics Supply (AES), another being vacuumtubes.net, and then there's also esrcvacuumetubes.com just to name a few places, and I don't think its a horribly expensive tube either (probably around $2-$4 dollars at the most.)

Good luck with your TV.
