The ion trap has to be set properly or you'll never see a raster.

Ok, so pin 3 of the 6V6 tube is giving a funky reading, it's giving a reading of -0.195vdc which doesn't seem right...
And that reading was taken in reference to pin 8 of the 6V6 tube just like the manual said.

And no, I don't have a high voltage probe.
I do have some CFLs but they're all burned out or broken unfortunately.
