Well not sure what's wrong with the CRT tester beyond the capacitor that came free. I put the cap back in place and tried again. I set the heater voltage to 6.3V and then turn it to HTR Leakage. It says it's good if it is anywhere in the yellow area of the meter scale. When I try it, the needle drops all the way back and that's outside the yellow range. I then switch it to G1 Leakage and it's the same thing for each gun. However, when I set the G1 voltage and G2 cutoffs, each gun tests good.

I think there are more issues with this tester. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't get the picture I do if the heater wasn't working properly as well as the G1s.
