hey, that wasn't too bad! I found the major problem with the restorer's work-he soldered a B+ connection to ground, hence the burning of resistors. The power resistors that burned were replaced. All other caps were checked to verify their proper connections. I replaced all of the electrolytics as some were just way off in value (100 mfd for a 47 mfd) and replaced the remaining caps.
Powering it up, I got high voltage and a raster! However, I believe that there may be problems with the yoke, flyback or both. I get a keystoned raster that fills 50% of the screen at half bright, and as bright is turned up full, the image expands, darkens, and disappears. No video or audio signal is discernable. I did not check volts yet, but all ohms are normal per the SAMS. Swapped out the horizontal, hv rectifier and damper tubes-no change in performance. This is where I would need AK help to proceed-where should I go from here? The raster for what it is seems very bright, so I would hope this set isn't a junker just yet....

OH, oh. Sounds like a shorted yoke.
