If either of the 2 conditions listed on the previous page are met, turn the set off and
remove the C-board from the CRT, and observe the condition of the RTV that
insulates the CRT pins and also keeps the plastic end cap attached to the neck.
The RTV is OK if it appears as shown in picture # 1 below. The RTV must fill
the gap between the plastic stem-base cap and the end of the CRT neck
(no gaps or bubbles), and it must completely surround the focus pin and must
extend to points A and B as shown in picture #1.
If the RTV looks like that shown in picture # 2, it is insufficient and must
be replaced.
