This set is very straightforward, garden variety series passs linear regulator(STR30130,and standard Sanyo horiz ckt. First, I never use NTE horiz outs, The original Sanyo hots are very reliable and actually less money. Next check C408 on primary of horiz driver xfrmr, usually open, will cause hot to fail, also check reg B+ many times when hot fails it stresses reg, I have used Sanyo 2SD1880 in many of these sets and never had a problem with them, hopes this helps.
