I replaced that wire and it's working again. Exchanging the weak 2AV2 with a good 1V2 made no difference.

The HV was right at 24kv, but the HO tube cathode current was way up around 240ma, adjustment could only bring it down to about 215.

I redid the convergence, it turns out it had gone off mainly because the convergence yoke had somehow managed to turn off center.

I noticed I had my meter not set all the way to zero, when it was off. I hardly ever use this one, but with a 600ma scale it is better than all my others for this which only have 100, or 1000ma scales. Cathode current is actually at about 200ma, so I'm just going to put this set all back together now.
