So far, this is boiling down to a glorified recap. Strip away all the fancy re stuffing of cardboard capacitors, quick resistance checks, and this is a pretty simple restoration.
I'm using clear hot glue and dark amber colored beeswax on the caps. Only a few more tubulars to go, under the video IF sections. It appears the ion trap magnet assembly was replaced, with a stock RCA unit. Lead number 2 was disconnected. I don't know why it was left hanging... I briefly power up the unit every three or four cabs replaced. Last test at 110 volts yielded a full 8 kilovolts at the second anode connection. Looks pretty healthy. The original electrolytics are still on the chassis. I'm saving them for last. I'm only powering up the chassis briefly, so as to not endanger anything.
