It turned out to be a shorting CRT. That set played here for 6 months
daily OK. probably the bouncing going home. I isolated the CRT filament
pins,ran a lead down to the fly and did a "wrap" on the core to isolate
it. Tapped the tube a few times, it flashed a bit then settled down. The
reason it had gone dead was the GMA 6.3V DC fuse had also opened up. The
fuse and CRT isolation seemed to do the trick. It was a freebee.
