I would suspect a bit of comtaminant in the CRT socket area of the spark gap. Or yes it could have been a spec of internal conductive material that broke free and sped thru the neck and shorted across some internal CRT elements. Try lightly tapping the neck while on and see if sensitive. Phil Phil Bader, Pres.
