My FADA is still working fine without problems so far, in spite of the oddly low measurement on the primary winding of the FBT, it's been run many times for hours with no release of any “magic blue smoke” or red-plating on the HOT, so I'm not sure what to make of the low reading, or if it really meant anything.
But I still have the NOS replacement on hand just in case.
The only thing I HAVE noticed with the set is that the IF section is still not optimally tuned, and given how old it is and what it has been through, AND, how hard this one is to tune in the first place, I'm not surprised, but I can tune in a decent picture and audio, and if needed, flip to direct A/V input.

One thing I am impressed with is how much audio power it can generate, the 6K6GT can easily overpower the little 5w 6x9 speaker I put in there, I now wish I got something a bit bigger!
