Have you tried holding a CFL light bulb next to the flyback and or H output tube with the set running to check for drive to the flyback?
Thanks, good to know that didn't hurt anything...
Yes, I just tried the bulb now... Looks like the flyback is running...
The only difference in what i did, is that the 2.7ohm resistor was originally a
1 watt; my replacement is a 1/2 watt...
Schematic only calls for a 1/2watt.
Old Coot said it should be fine...
