Famous for bad HV splitter. To check, remove input from flyback to splitter, at the splitter. Isolate it. I use a glass tube, and have a NE2 neon bulb in there to indicate HV. turn the set on, it it stays, and you have sound, you're getting closer. Re-attach the input and one by one, remove the hv to the crt's, as a bad crt will cause the same symptom. I haven't had it on a rca yet but I ordered a splitter for a zenith, only to find a bad crt.
