Flyback temperature

[Tubejunke]

Thanks a lot "Squirrel Boy" for the fine explanation and pictorial. The two definitely give me a better understanding of the circuit and will allow a clearer explanation of what I see in my schematic.

My .01mfd certainly goes from the plate of the horizontal oscillator to the grid of the output tube same as C85 in Username1's pic. So that is the true representation of a coupling cap. The .001mfd going through the 33Kohm resistor is positioned just as C84 is in Username1's pic only there is a ground symbol at the end. That pretty much has them in parallel. In the picture a load resistor is pointed out. Mine seems to be a 2 watt 82Kohm unit. Finally the picture shows an R127 going to chassis ground. There I have a 10Meg.

This may be a useless comparison to some folks, but it is helping me a lot in learning and that's often what we are here for. Parts swapping is more or less taking the low road. Not that it's all I know, but I am often guilty of it. I want to start using my oscilloscope more than I do. I know "TV repairmen" who seldom if ever use one, but it is certainly one of the more important tools in the electronics arsenal.

Thanks again everyone and when I make some changes or other accomplishments I will be sure to update.
