Perhaps Moyer has a sub.
from an earlier post:
Grr. Using a listening tube, it seems the ticking (arcing) sound originates in the flyback. |
I'd think that that much of shorting (almost half that winding) would kill or drastically reduce the horizontal width, and drastically reduce the very high voltage feeding the CRT. The manufacturer may have had (after the info publication) thicker wire used in that winding, making the resistance read lower.
Some corona dope might take care of the arcing you were hearing.
