If you have an old CRT monitor kicking around, you could steal its high voltage wire off it. Those monitors also usually have a fair amount of high voltage caps of the sort useful in TV restorations.

Well, I just stripped the wire back another 3/8 inch and it was good clean wire. I cleaned up the plate cap connector and re-soldered it back on to the wire. All is well now. I do have some 20K wire I salvaged from the 19" TV.
I've started on changing a few resistors that were basically stand alone. I'm waiting for my Just Radios order to come in. Then the recapping will take place in earnest.

My order from Just Radios came in! Full speed ahead. I placed the order last Monday night the 26th. Great service. Just less than a week to get here.

Changed some resistors and caps that were easy just to get into it.

Recapping continues. I replaced the 1.5K 10W Candohm resistor with a 1.5K 50W chassis mount resistor. I was going to use a 25W resistor but the 50W was less than a buck more and I feel it will work better to dissipate the heat.
I'm using 1W resistors to replace the 1/2W carbon composition ones. I'm staying with replacing 1W with 1W and so on. In one instance, I used a 3W resistor instead of a 2W. When I replace a component, I check it off my list, and then highlight it on the schematic. Helps keeps track of what was replaced and a "visual" of my progress. I'm also checking each removed resistor for its value and the value of its replacement. If interested, I'll publish that list when done.
