Thanks for the advise and wellcome!
I was going to give up til I get my test equipment repaired but I checked a couple more resistors and found an open 1/2 watt 82k(R110Sams). I told my friend I would almost bet money it would work now and it did. It was a greta feeling to see the screen come on full! This resistor was not burnt as the other one was. I wonder if one was fried from operating the set previously with the original hot electrolytics? Maybe the other just went out from sitting a long time? Vertical seems good now. I now think the flyback is likely original because the HV cup has been changed probably caused that cage to be loosened.The flyback got fairly hot to touch after being on for like 30min or so. I will soon get all set up to verify the currents. I guess I'll make a bunch of resistor checks. I hope it's just a resistor causing the brightness to be very low. I think the CRT should produce a bright picture because when I shut the set off the screen shows lines coming to a close in the center and they are very bright. I'll post photos as it gets better.
Thanks again to all.
