So much for being on the right track. After carving out another arcing trace I put the chassis back for the 48th time, now sparks from yet another location! What is going on here!? This time I cleaned that new trace out, then also pulled open the hv cage to look for signs of trouble, but everything looked okay. When I again fired it up, more sparks, plus when the hv came up there was a hollow sound echoing, I couldn't see the screen from my position but I don't think there was a raster ecept for maybe a flash. I reseated the hv cage cover (this is the one with the 3A3 attached to the top cover upside down) in hopes that the connection was poor but no luck.
I am about to just put the back cover on and let it sit for awhile-maybe a long while! (it took several ordeals like this, with years of sitting in between, to figure out my CTC-5!) There are some other options:
A) Anyone wanna clean CTC-31 remote set, good project for ya?
B) Anyone gotta less finicky CTC-31 chassis gathering dust?
C) Anyone know whats going on with this thing?
Guys, I do appreciate the help you've given me.
