Kevin,
Have restored two HO-10's and two HO-13's. The 1V2 is suspect. Also
replace the two HV caps and any high value resistors around the CRT.
The caps are hard to find  but you can use two .05 caps in parallel at
1600V . You can get these Orange drops at Antique Electronic Supply.
Have also had to replace the 1V2 socket. Use ceramic if possible. Hope
the tranny is OK. Peter Dahl gets $150 a pop for them. Bottom
line..replace all. Good luck and 73.
