I'm not seeing that as a match, other than it's a Silvertone.

Back on the subject of HV. I can draw a decent arc on the output of the flyback, but after the HV rectifier I can barely get anything. HV rectifier is good. Could the 500 pf 15kv doorknob capacitor be leaky and pulling the HV down? Or should I just stop being lazy/cheap and recap the horizontal section?

I had similar symptoms on an Emerson the other day and it was indeed a leaky doorknob capacitor.

I noticed the HV rectifier filaments are not lighting up. I tested the resistance of the secondary "winding" for the HV rectifier and its fine (0 ohms). The HV rectifier works fine in a different TV. So the filaments for the HV rectifier are getting no power. I can still draw a healthy arc off the flyback output.

I'll look to see if there's anything goofy with the flyback's core where the rectifier filament winding is.......

Check and see if the filaments light with the plate cap disconnected.

Are you able to see its filament lit when it is in that other TV set? As Jeffhs mentioned, sometimes it is hard to see the filament glow from a 1B3GT or other HV rectifier tube.
