Well hello all! Been a while now! Believe it or not, my daughter was only 6 months old when I started this thread! Shes 10 now and have had 2 boys in the process, ages 4 and 6. I decided to take on this beast again.. it's been sitting in the same place forever.

Anyone miss me? Lol.

Anyway still same issue. Keystone effect and low B+ off the 390v supply. something is loaded down. Resistor getting hot off the square of the filter capacitor, which is original. I should probably recap that section. if you remember reading back, I installed a 100uf cap backwards. it caused this after my mishap. the whole set seems to be loaded down. No sound of vert xformer, probably from low voltage. heres the kicker, if I put the tv into service mode via the switch, the raster line is cut short on the right side of the screen so horiz is cut too. Obviously from the 277v where the 390v should be. I lost the SAMS a member sent me years back..
With the yoke disconnected, still have the load down..

Any fresh ideas?

Thanks all
