Bugman,
The TV might already be broke if the shadow mask is magnetic.
You probably know this ...but the thermistor on the degaussing coil is probably fried open.
For those that don't know, the degaussing coil is a coil of wire around the front perimeter of any colored CRT picture tube that momentarily produces a strong, but quickly fading magnetic field, to demagnetize the metal in the tube so that the correct electrons hit the right color phosphors without being bent by a stray magnetic field. A loud 60 cycle hum is momentarily heard when the coil first energizes until the inline thermistor gets hot and cuts off current. Unless it is already fried and never passes any current.
Ron,
I suppose you can tell which screwdrivers and wrenches are yours by the way they all swivel to point north when layed down?
