i think i need a drink but i dont drink ,lol,lol the 11.5 was the top and that is where the blue wire via connected under the chassis was and it looks like the same in bills photo, the top tab. so you are saying the lower ohms is where it should go, but it then changes the connection on the focus coil.

11.5 is the bottom of the fly ELECTRICLY REPEAT ELECTRICLY, ONE MORE TIME ELECTRICLY.

this is where the blue lead from the yoke should be connected. if it is then fine.

look at the schematic to you see the bottom of the fly, that is the ELECTRIC bottom of the fly. I dont know how to be more clear on this.

[DaveWM]

if you are saying you have it hooked up right, blue lead the the ELECTRIC bottom of the fly then I can offer no more insights other than making sure the focus coil is ELECTRICLY connected right. I am not sure if that could mess with the boost voltage enough to screw up the bias voltage to the shunt.

well i do understand what your saying but if i move this wire to the bottom then it is now on a tap of the focus coil that dont belong there it shows both in the sams and the rca diagram, so i am alittle apprehensive about moving this wire for fear of burning the f coil or something else. if bill was able to take another pic of the connections on his chassis of the f coil we will be able to see why and what im saying here. obviously you guys know a hell of alot more then me but thankfully there is schematics to try to make sure and this is what im afraid of doing . the only connections on the f coil are 1 2 3 4 is not used and wont have anything on it.

look, you have to connect the yoke blue lead (boost) to the 11.5 ohm lug. THEN you have to hook up the focus coil CORRECTLY.

If you are worried about burning things up, just put the meter in the cathode of the horz out and keep an eye on the current, if it starts to go north of 210 pull the plug. Good thing about tubes is they are not instant.

Quit looking at the numbers on the Sams, hook up the coils ELECTRICLY correct per the schematic on the focus coil the the ELECTRICLY correct fly terminals.

this is what im tring to explain the f coil is connected correctly i have went over it so many times now the only thing different is moving the yoke blue to the bottom lug it then becomes wrong as far as the f coil goes, the f coil is numbered and the boost does not show it as on that terminal both from the miller paper as well as the 2 schematics.

It is NOT connected correctly IF you reversed the fly lugs. the two ELECTRICLY speaking bottom lugs connect to the focus coil (D and E on SB's photo).

You just have to figure out which lug is which between the schematic and the coil and connect it right ELECTRICLY.

i did this already but being this boost is said to be on the bottom goes against what im reading. so if i took the 2 from the fly and reversed them then that would be moving the boost wire to another internal tap of the fly and would leave the terminal in question on the f coil alone, right? it would then be using the 11.5 ohms.
