Bad news: The vertical restored and the set played for awhile. Then SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP. The screen went dark momentarily then the breaker tripped.

The flyback melted down from a short in the primary. It wasn't running hot, was holding steady at 195ma on the HO cathode current. It just died horribly. I think I'm gonna call it quits on this one. It seems as though I'm just running into more nasty failure each time I try and run the thing.

I would rather take the excellent CRT outa this one and use it in another more favorable working set that needs it then continue to sink time into this set.
