- I had a similar problem with a TV I had. It could be that your tube is
- blown, but first I'd check if any xtors, resistors, or caps are
- disfunctional which connect to the red gun. My first guess would be a
- blown xtor. My problem was kind of weird in that a spark gap was bad.
- Strange but true, but a replacement fixed the problem.
