Slightly off topic but still relevant, an experienced RCA technician once told me that when you power up a TV for the first time, you want to let it run in short increments. 5 or 10 minutes at a time, then 20 to 30 minutes at a time. This will help to slowly cook out the moisture content in the flyback. It's a much better than turning the set on and leaving it on and all the moisture causes the flyback to arc and stuff.
