Then disaster, the power transformer shorted out.
After I washed down the chassis, I "baked" it in the oven in dehydrate mode. Even so I suspect there was some residual moisture left.

Luckily, I had a replacement on hand.

Success! It's a real shame about the burn line. The CRT tests very strong and has a lot of life left.
