helps with other projects & do more than trace & show freq.

This is long distance servicing. VERY hard to do. A lot of us that
spent time in the biz fixin 10's of thousands of TV's could spend a
few mns looking , twisting & observing a set & know where to go.
You have stuck it out well & the next one will be easy.

BTW vid det diodes are usually in a can. Often the can has two parts
& if you pull the top half off the diode is there. You can always nip one end
of the diode & hang a new one in on the bottom for test.

+1 a Sencore analyst or B&K 1077 analyst and a scope are things to have if you own more than 2 vintage TVs that you plan to maintain.
A daily driven tube TV is going to fail every 12 months give or take 6...If you get tricky troubles every 3rd time, the time you save with good equipment will pay for that equipment and it's storage several times over.
