Right now the cord is locked into the back of the cabinet, so I haven't been able to run any tests to see where the B+ breakdown is. I'm going to guess I don't, though, since there's no life beyond the filament string. My next step is going to be freeing that cord so I can start doing voltage checks with the set on.

The power cord interlock connector is held by a "C" clip, easy to remove. It's the earlier PortaColor chassis.
IIRC, The set has two power supplies, one half wave 140 volt source and one 240 volt, voltage doubler source. It has three power supply diodes and maybe two wire-wound resistors. The power supply is near the HV enclosure and there should be a fuse nearby, as well.
