wow that focus coil was really smoked, burned to a crisp. I had a new one so in the process of replacing. I wonder if overloading the HOT could drive it into grid emissions, accounting for the -30 vs -60? There is no DC leaking as I checked the grid voltage with the HOT pulled, right around 0-1 VDC, per the DMM. If there was a leaking coupling cap I would expect to see B+ there, esp before the osc starts up.
