Hey Larry, Is this TV the one with the two HV anode wires? One comes from the IHVT and the second one goes to the Focus/Screen block? If so, I saw one TV that exhibited your problem, removing the anode wire at the anode cup that connects to the Focus/Screen Block allowed the TV to power up and stay up. Sorry no help for the 15V supply, you've already checked everything that I know about.
