Well I disconnected the original filament wiring and hooked up a separate filament transformer for the damper tube. Also replaced the lead on the flyback to the 6BG6 plate cap. Put it all back together and it worker great!!The best picture I've seen on that set. For a hour. Came in here to the computer for a bit and smelled something bad in the other room. I think the replacement transformer didn't have enough insulation and it arced over internally.I could hear it arcing. I not quite sure what happen after that but it toasted the width coil, that's what was stinking up the joint. Lost hv to the crt.
Dug up a transformer with a 3Kv insulation and install that. Replaced the width coil. Wasn't making enough hv and had shrunken picture. Long story short replaced the 6BG6 & 6W4 and it seems to be working great again. I think my wife thinks it's going to set the house on fire!

ps Anybody got a spare width coil for a RCA KCS-47A?
