If you have a scope, it and a dc voltmeter, you should be able to
check the voltages on the output transistors to make sure they are
biased correctly and then check the waveforms. If you don't see any
sawtooth at the output of the pair of output transistors, that's your
problem. If you do have a sawtooth there, then maybe the capactior
coupleing the output to the deflection coils is open/

Hi Bob,

I should have said in my "update", I didn't list all the tests I
performed.

There is no coupling capacitor to the yoke in this TV.

For now, I put the "DOG" aside so I can work on other "stuff".
