Yea I guess Im not sure what happens when a CRT cuts off. It can produce relatively bright rasters on all 3 colours. If the tube is weak I am ok with it if I can get it to make a watchable pic. Its not going to be a daily watcher.

Im limited in my testing equipment, I don't have a HV probe or a scope, and have no issues getting something, if it will help me fix it.
Is there ways to work on checking some of the HV out without the HV probe? What are they worth? Or is it just easier to get new tubes and try that first.

I already have a new HOT, and damper. But the focus and HV rectifiers look to have been there since the set was new. The old HOT was making a blue arc internally. I do appreciate the help guys maybe Im just a pessimist.
