This is a Curtis-Mathes TV/stereo/record player from 1961 or 1962. The upside down triangles on AM are the Civil Defense or CONELRAD markings. I'm glad you got this awesome piece to work for the customer. Very nice, Seth!
The ground on that one cap is floating so if you use the positive lead for a terminal strip and remove the ground then the cap is out of circuit. But it's hard to tell from the video if that was the case.
I am pretty sure you have the vertical size set too high. You don't want to do that because it runs a bunch of excess current through the vertical output circuits. The reason why the picture may have black bars on the top and bottom is because modern programming is a different aspect ratio than the TV.
Definitely check all those Black Beauties for leakage, if they show any slight dc resistance they have to go, I know some love the sound of leaky black beauties in the tone side on guitar amps. But definitely not on the tube side !!
Hauled a similar one to the electronics recycle. It was a shame. The woman's landlord said she had to get rid of some of the stuff in her small apartment.
This is a huge Love Boat of a TV combo. Terrific repair and cleanup.
So big it even pushed away your intro, LOL

Very nice, classy looking piece!
Everything that comes out of Texas is bigger! Hoot of a TV combo console and heavier than sh*t. Beautiful job!

They're deceptive. Some are poly and some are bombs waiting to blow up. While waiting, they're red plate your most valuable tubes....

I wonder what the charge would be for a job like that?
Cuss to your heart's content, Seth. After seeing whom the 'good christian folk' support for president, I'm over their faux concern about language.
Fax though

That TV chassis looks like a cheap Zenith clone
Super sketchy repairs by the previous shop. Leaving the old can in circuit is a bad look.
