seen that before, don't think its a problem. I would not worry about it, just leave it be.

Thanks, Dave. That's what I was hoping to hear. I'll leave it be, at least for the initial power up.

you will know if the shunt tube is working by checking the current thru it with the screen darkened. IIRC they want it to be about 1.4ma. With that much you will see the tube glowing pretty brightly figure its disapating nearly 30 watts. Of course the real test is does the HV hold constant regards of scene brightness.
