I know its trying to be taken in different directions by different people with ideas about what can be wrong. I'm quite surprised you have not called us all a bunch of nuts by now and thrown that tv off the roof and went and got another off CL for free or $10. and just said the hell with it...... : )

If its not right in that area of the coupling transformer, that diode, open resistor, then it's got to be the pink fairy inside the flyback, she probably can't get any air cause of that extra silicone on it.....

I know it's a Letterman thing, but you may be able to plead your case to Lenno, he's on your coast, maybe he'll make an exception and do a Letterman and toss it off a roof for you and put it on national tv..... Could be the best solution to the problem...

I've spent years looking for this set. I'll either fix the jail bars or learn to live with them.

Okay, she's got the new damper diode and the 1.5ohm resistor. The resistor tested as 1.8 and the one I replaced it with was dead on 1.5.

I also tested the resistance of the coupler transformer and one side was pretty much dead on at .23ohm (Sams has .25) and the other side was 92ohm (Sams has it at 100ohm).

She's been running for a little bit now and nothing blew up. The jail bars are still there, though. Not sure where to go next.
