Chasis: PTV610
Below is my original post.  I took the front panel off
the TV exposing the CRT's and then turned the set on. 
The neck of one of the CRT's lit up like the fourth of
July.  All kinds of sparking and arcing going on in
there till the HV shut off.  Still had sound.  I
decided to pull the CRT board off of this CRT to see
if the HV stayed on and hoepfully find the cause of
this problem.  When I turned the set back on, it fried
2 resistors and the HOT.  Maybe I'm crazy but I
thought pulling the CRT board off would not hurt
anything.  Any help appreciated.

Unit has sound but no picture.  This is another set
that a shop has looked at and then sent to me to fix. 
They replaced the focus block and did not help.  When
disconnect FBT from focus block, HV comes back up. 
Possible bad block I guess.  Anyone have a print for
this set?
