Okay, so I may have broken something, but it may not have been something I did.

I got the voltage measurements. For my 22JU6:

1: Unused
2: -20V
3: 0V
4: .3V
5: .15V
6: Unused
7: 120V
8: 37V
9: Unused

For the 8FQ7 (I checked then all because it's easier to access the pins above the chassis):

1: 0V
2: 5V
3: 8.6V
4: 109V
5: .04V
6: .06V
7: 5V
8:2.3V

Then, I measured Pin 9 on my 8FQ7, and the yoke started squealing and sparking. I see no indication that I shouldn't measure that pin on the schematic, and I fact, looking underneath, I don't even see anything hooked up to that pin, nor any mention of it at all on the schematic.

It looks like a wire may have broken on my yoke. I'm attempting to attach a picture, but I'm on mobile so I may have to do a separate reply for that.

So basically here's where I am: I don't think I should go any further without looking this yoke over. Is there a way to check if it's okay? If I do have a broken wire (it's accessible, but small) what are my repair options? If the yoke was having trouble, could that be causing my low high voltage problem? Also, from the schematic, should I be safe to measure pin 9 of my 8FQ7? How do my other voltages look? Some of them seemed off to me.
