ISTR that Gordon's a Citroen fan, and so a lost cause anyway ;-) *runs*
What's wrong with Citroens? If I ever learn to operate such a machine, a
DS is very high up my list of 'wants' :-)
Mind you, I spent a good many years as a particle physicist, so
presumably got a bit of stray radiation....
On a serious note, is the filament to the tube
glowing, suggesting that it's
getting HV? (you'll almost certainly have to disable that xenon lamp to tell!)
It's not always the case that the filament supply comes from the line
output transformer. I'd suggest measuring as many of the electrode
voltages as you can (including the EHT if you have a suitable probe, and
to be honest, if you're working on CRT stuff, you need one).
