Sure, and I get that.
In this case, i performed the ohms law calculations based on resistance and voltage drop, sure enough that 5W resistor is dissipating closer to 6W so im a bit uncomfy. I decided to order up a 10W and we will use that. Stil going to get hot, but itll be within the acceptable limits of the resistor.
Anyways, I still have weird issue that ive not been able to nail down. Its acting like theres "silver mica disease" in the picture, causing white flashing lines to come and go, as well as the vertical to get jumpy. so i need to figure that cause.
there was an issue with the horizontal sync coming and going especially tapping the chassis, there is a 4 pin plug on the chassis that has a bypass thingy in it. That was all dirty so i contact cleaned that, solved my horiz sync issue.
Now, the vertical sync and picture noise that comes and goes. all the tube sockets are clean and dont make noise when wiggled. so its an electrical problem.
I tried spraying the resistors and things with freeze spray to see if i can get it o act out.
But since I already had one leaky mica cap (2Megs in one direction, 8 megs in another) i bet the rest are bad too.
