I'll work on it though, thank you. :) Does the transformer smoke with the suction cup terminal hooked to the CRT? Did you try to power the circuit with the HV terminal disconnected from the CRT too?

Should I try it with it out/not-connected? What difference will it make and what should I be looking at when trying this? Cheers. |

If you don't know how to safely disconnect the HV cup (and how to safely test the HV out of the transformer), leave it alone. It can bite you! Regards Frank IZ8DWF |
