Hallicrafters rebuild update.

[Eric H]

On the Raytheon I didn't measure the HV prior to the transformer failing, however after I cleaned and recoated it it was obvious to the naked eye that the set had more HV, it was brighter and had less blooming.
Of course in that case it had been running on the edge of failure to start with so the "After" was probably running closer to spec.

I have a Philco that someone has transplanted what looks like a Hallicrafters HV assembly in to it, I could never get it to run reliably though, I might take another crack at it someday.

For the folks that have HV output issues, I wonder if they could monitor the RF frequency over time and see if it shifts.
