I repaired this set exactly one month ago.
Replaced the FBT with a generic from Acme Sales...(Don't say it). Also, 
replaced the fuse, HOT and R415.
Got a call today the set was dead again, just clicked on, then clicked off when 
pressing power.
Went over this evening to find R415 (.47/1w) open again and burnt. I replaced 
it with a .39 ohm and the
set worked. The color bands were burnt on this.
The B+ goes through this resistor.
I felt the resistor after running the set for a while and it didn't get real 
hot.
Question, could a faulty flyback cause this or a marginal reg?
Is it possible the lower value I used may increase the longevity of this 
component?
Thank you.
