Well, I got the coil fixed! Turns out it had a loose connection on the one side and just came off when I poked it with a probe. Re-soldered that, and its nice and loud now! Gave it a few adjustments and it sounds great.
Ive come to the conclusion that the sound, seems to be in a good position for where it is on the fine tuning. It’s the video that’s not correct. It has to be cranked all the way to 1 side(don’t remember if its to the left or right) to look good, while good sound is in the middle.
Unfortunately though, I killed the little TV. I started messing with some of the slugs on the IF board to see what they’d do in relation to the image, and the one shorted out and burned a resistor on the board. I changed that resistor, then powered it up again and it immediately fried that one, so I f****d it up…

I was at the A2 slug when it shorted and It wants to keep burning the R23 resistor- in accordance with the schematic I’m using. It appears to be the sets B+ … Well, whats next. Am I to figure that the coil itself is now shorted out and bad and have to search for one, or something else in my circuit. When it initially happened all I noticed that smoke and burned was that 330ohm resistor. Haven’t found anything else.
