HOWEVER COMMA

If for some reason the vert out tube weren't biased correctly and drawing too much current, like if it weren't getting a drive waveform from the osc section for example, it's possible it's just drawing a ton of current and burned the VOT that way instead. Only way to know for sure is power it up with a DMM attached to the VOT red wire: if it flies up way high, you've got boost issues that need to be sorted. If it sags below what you'd expect, you may have a short somewhere.

What's it doing right now, with vertical obviously not working? What's boost measure at?
Got ya. Thanks. I do not have another 4.7uf 450v cap at this point. Blown one is still in set. So need to order some parts and then thrown that in there and fire it up with meter at red wire of VOT to see what it is reading. What should it be reading at that point?
