Just some evening AMC Rambler-ings,,,, If you want to see if the AGC is doing something
you might want to feed that tuner subber back to V2 where you had a pretty good
picture, and make some before & After voltage measurements on the AGC line.
You might also want to play around with the AGC control while there is a nice
picture on the screen, and see if there is a voltage change on the AGC line,
it's not so important to see a change on the screen at this point.

As for L42, you can do one of 2 things... Cut it out and throw it into the pond, or
you can try to protect it as best you can. Coils are made of 2 things, An Ideal
inductor, and some resistance - from the copper. If this coil really really did
change it's resistance, and increase, then it's already burned. If it's getting
Hot, it's because Current is heating up the resistive part of the coil.
So the current is either coming from a AC, or Pulsed DC signal
causing a field change in the coil sufficient to cause large
enough current to make it hot! The other possibility
is there is large current flowing through it and
making it hot...... That's really the only
2 possibilities...... Unless, it's within
distance to be inductively coupled
to another coil causing current
to flow in the coil...... So, is
this tv too close to your
Warp Coils ?
