Shaun, They may check good but bad under the freq. law. I talked to an rca 
engineer a while back on a problem I had on an rca of this chassis and as we 
spoke for a while I remembered about these diodes and why they fail. His 
reply was that the diode was being stressed because of the freq. law
and to replace them with fresh ones no matter how good they checked. So I 
replace them every time to be on the safe side of things.
