Thanks Peter! I'm inclined to think I grabbed it quickly enough to save the tube. Literally less than 30 seconds from when I heard the hum and I killed the power. Weakened it, absolutely, but it's a new tube, so there should be some life to it.

The old driver board obviously is showing all of its (at least) 40 years. I think it needs replacement before I can look at anything else. (My spare has a new fiberglass reproductions, much nicer quality obviously)
