Hmm -- the HV diode I'm thinking of is connected in-line from the output of
the transformer, trough the HV wire to the tube (red wire, has the 'suction
cup' on to the glass).

This should be an H1812, and crosses to SK7333 or ECG/NTE 527A, netiher of
which are cheap, $10-$15 if I recall.

Omar V. on the list was selling Actual Real H1812's a month or so ago
(bought a few spares myself.)
