The horiz effiency should be adjusted anytime that tube is changed, adjusted so that the current is acceptable. I suspect few people ever really do it. That could be the problem. The -38 is notorious for eating flybacks and high current will quicken that.

If you ever need tubes in the future, post a want ad on here. Guys like me are drowning in TV tubes! (but, alas, no spare 6LQ6's)
