ok i just checked the voltage with out replacing any caps just out of curiosity. the voltage with the brightness control all the way down was 136.5 and all the way up was 136.1. i do not have a variac or an isolation transformer for that matter (i learned the hard way what a "hot chassis" on my other Hitachi set, a CT-19A3, after nuking the bridge rectifier and nearly blowing up my old heathkit scope ). just out of curiosity what are some of the things that can go wrong when recapping a solid state set?
