Inside the IF area is a small bumblebee. Change it! Mine drove me a bit nuts with that cap leaking for awhile and it's not easily visible even with the IF shields off. The RCA schematic makes life easier than SAMS. SAMS does not use the parts location numbers on the boards. They make their own numbers up. Also, SAMS has the screen voltage too low on the schematic. Keep us posted on the high voltage problem. I would monitor grid drive to the HOT to see if the oscillator is dropping out. That may explain the blown fuse (too much HOT cathode current).
