UPDATE- I devised a corona free method of measuring high voltage (no there is no rubber cap on the lead to the CRT you can slip it under) and lo and behold I measure 22-24 kV out of her now. I didn't see the leakage robbing my voltage before where the tip of the probe met the (empty) rectifier socket contact. I sleeved it with 2 layers of shrink tubing leaving just the tip and voila- 24 kV which I adjusted per the specs down to 23.
