Well I got this set running. Yeah! The 2,500 ohm chassis mount resistor was shorted to ground. The picture tube did check like it is alive but was not strong...

What's funny is there is a burn in the screen....took me a while to figure out what it was but it appears to be a tv station test pattern . A circle in each corner and a dark spot in the middle! So now I need a 16rp4 crt. Wish me luck!

Oh, One last question; Does a crt lose its contrast capabilities as it gets weaker?
The picture did not impress me as far as how white the whites were.
