I bought it as a working original back in the early 90s and after a few years of use, the flyback melted down. I found a replacement a couple of years ago and put it in. When I turned the set on and the HV came in there was a lot of arching going on. I assume that in replacing the flyback that I didn't actually fix the problem, so some caps are in order if I ever mess with the set again. I am trying to liquidate, so it depends on what goes and what stays. I like the Maggie as the chassis is clean enough to eat a meal off of and it is really service friendly as the chassis and CRT pull out in a piece of plywood as a unit. The only bad part is you have to remove the CRT to get your hands (and soldering iron) on any components.

If memory serves me correctly, the schematic that I have covers a load of model #s as do many. There would be no way to do a different folder for each variation of a production run. If you need a copy of the folder, I can send you one if I can find the one in question.

If you happen to have the schematics of any of it, that would be great and I could use it. The different chassis numbers are:

Amp- AMP-142CC (Sams 311-9)
Tuner- CR-745 (Sams 404-9)
TV- V26-03AA (Sams 404-3)
Changer- RC-456 (Sams 342-3)

marty59 helped me identify all of the components of the set. He's a Magnavox Guru.

Let me know what you come up with. Thank's for the help.

OK, give me some time to find what I have. The Christmas holiday is bearing down on my free time. I know I have the television portion, and they may have thrown in some of the other goodies. I may have to consult marty59 when I decide to dig out my Magnavox. If the high voltage weren't out of whack I would have a working set. I need to check the crt before I put anymore time and money in it. Most of all I don't want to mess up the new flyback! The severe arching seemed to be concentrated around the lead that goes to the rectifier; right where it loops around the iron core of the transformer. Probably no big deal...

That will be fine. I won't have the caps for a week or so and have a couple of other set I'm working on in the meantime. Thank's.
