Working on this Zenith H2125....

[Kamakiri]

Chassis 16H27, black and white, that I got from Dwight

Great sound, no raster. Ran through the tubes and replaced a shorted 6EA8 in the tuner. Here's a couple of questions:

1. For a set to form a raster, does the rubber insulator on the HV anode on the picture tube have to fit tightly against? While the anode is securely in place, the rubber boot is kind of floppety.

2. I can hear what might be the oscillator running, but what could also be described as light rapid snapping from inside a shorted transformer (councidentally, there's a transformer right there). The frequency increases with clockwise rotation of the vertical hold control.

Sams on this set is 575-2 according to a note on the inside of the set. Remember guys I'm a noob at tearing into these beyond tubes and radio restoration, and I'm committed to get a working knowledge of set repair!
