You absolutely must put one of those 8.2 volt double-Zener protection diodes
across the CRT filament before running the set just turning it on ... until you protect the CRT filament you absolutely MUST slowly turn it on slowly with a variac (unless somebody has installed a separate power transformer for the
CRT filament.) We don't want any more blown out unobtainium CRTs.
