tested tubes and checked connections

Thanks for the advice reeferman, well I soldered a few questionable connections and cap leads in the vertical sweep section, tested tubes tonight and found out why no picture! 12 tubes bad in this tv including some interesting readings on the 3A3 HV Rectifier tube, it pegs and bounces the needle on my Jackson 648-1 tester.. The 6BK4 Shunt Regulator tube doesnt budge the needle.. all the other tubes reading poor are just chroma, demod, burst amp sync and IF tubes, all are in the bad to fair range, just assume change em all out... Another thing I found suprising is the lack of dust inside this unit, the lady that owned it was meticoulous about the beauty of this set and kept the wood oiled and there is no scratches, dents or rips anywhere, as a matter of fact I just found the original instruction manual, warranty and schematic in the record holder! Sweet!
