Weee! another Trash TV saved!

I did not really want it, as it was solid state, but when my friends offered it, I was not gonna refuse.

It's a RCA CTC-177

And its DEAD Jim!

No power no nothing!

found a DEAD short on the HOT, but to my surprise, the transistor was NOT blown, but the 140V line to it was shorted DEAD.

The regulator might be fried too, not sure.
Oh and the thermistor is GONE, waiting for a new one.
