I reconnected the scan coils but with the 0.5 mfd 'lash-up' bypassed but just using a .047 mfd cap as a test. I know this is over 10x smaller in value but I think it should show if the lash-up was damping the EHT. The result is no difference, no EHT. The U26 does not light. This sort of eliminates the capacitor(s)?
