I think that the booger in the CRT circuit is Q109. I've checked all the components around it and even changed the all the transistors around it to mil spec. That Q109 "buzzing" and CRT flickering I had when I touched Q530 is gone since I changed out both Q530 and Q533. However the voltages surrounding Q109 are still way off and unstable.
The voltages surrounding Q109 (2N3053) are supposed to be: -0.6V on Collector, -3.3V on Base, and -4.5V on Emitter.
My measurements: -0.19V Unstable on Collector, -3.8V on Base, and -4.4 on Emitter.
I've changed CR104 and it helped a tiny bit. The only other thing I can do is change CR110, and I don't think that will make any difference but I may do it anyway.
When I put my finger on the can of Q109, the voltage on the Collector climbs closer to normal, but it does not go past -0.35V. It also helps to stabilize it a little bit.
I checked it with the diode tester and Hfe tester, and it appears to be OK, but that still doesn't tell me that it's definitely good obviously.
The high voltage side of the transformer is within spec and stable. It reads -2414V.
Q1108 (2n3055) also may be on it's way out. It's collector reads 3.4V low with a small amount of instability, and it's base is tied into TP112. The Emitter to ground is reading 0.9mV while everything else in the vicinity that hits chassis ground is reading less. C108 seems to be good according to it's ESR and value, but I plan to replace it anyway. I have some ST 2N3055's on hand if I decide to replace Q1108. It's kind of a PITA to get out without taking the boards off again, though.
What are your thoughts on all this? Q109 & Q1108 to be replaced?
