Humidity and what to do next...

For three days now the set has been working w/o H-V problems, but if/when it happens to lose adequate H-V due to weather/humidity again, I'll remount the CRT without the mu metal shield and H-V insulating wrap. Should help pinpoint just where the short is taking place.

Two or three times a year I get to climb up on the roof after a major storm and reorient my $10 antenna towards NYC again, like yesterday. See photo.

My humidity problem comes from the lake across the street, which runs three blocks down to the Atlantic ocean, which is of course the real culprit.
