I used to see bad FBTs in those all the time, but I would condemn the set when that was the problem. It's a PITA to replace the FBT in those sets. Being that it was common to have bad ones, I would think that there should be plenty of aftermarket ones floating around. I maintain a roundie Magnavox combo for a local collector (non-tech), and his, miraculously, has the original FBT. Just has had 9,278 other annoying and hard-to-troubleshoot problems.
