Remember this set? Yep, I still have it. Here's where it's at currently.

Replaced the Synchro-Lock, and it was working for about 10 minutes. All of a sudden, the picture shut off and the 6BG6 started hotplating. This was last winter.

Since I've replaced all of the obvious stuff, and gone far and above beyond that, this week I decided to stick in a new fly to see if that would cure the issue, since I had one here (was suggested by someone that I try that). Nothing.

After over two years, my disgust level with this set is high. I don't know what voltages are currently on anything because of that. If I can't fix this thing soon, it will go on Craigslist to be made into a dog bed and I really won't care

That said, please give me some advice on this thing. I'm at my wit's end.
