I've never seen a flyback work at this ring level. Tried to do a little research on this chassis appears that the ATC113 is an offshoot decendant of the CTC203 lineage, although apparently signal path traverses thru the PIP board several times. I had also tried scrapeing and resoldering the coil off the base of the HOT as on the 203's. Only found one tip in the database so far on a 27" version of the chassis with simmilar symptoms and solution. Must be planned obsolescane on these newer sets have the flyback self destruct after 18 mo or so. ?

But, don't these newer RCA flybacks have to ring 35 or above to be good?
