The current FBT in there is still all original, no mods, I probably won't mess with it until something happens to it, then change to the NOS one and take time trying to fix it, if it can be.
The only other main point of failure now would be the CRT, but as mentioned, this TV is a bit unique with regard to others of it's kind, as it has spent more of it's life in storage (20-25 years) than being used, so there is less usage on the CRT.
