seen a few of these bad over the years and usually just replacing them

"A" version of this chip as being improved or better. Then again in
some forums it seems that its not recommended to replace an original
with an "A". Does anyone have any further insight on this? Also not
having a schematic, does anyone have a straight forward
troubleshooting procedure for this chassis or perhaps a published tip
on it that they could possibly share with me? Thanks very much for any
assistance you may be able to offer. Lenny Stein, Barlen Electronics.

I have the same set and i'm getting the same thing. I've never tried to fix a tv but I ordered the STRS6301 b/c i'm too poor to have someone fix it. I'm pretty good with electronics and i've soldered before. Can anyone give me some pointers on how I should go about this? Preferably some safety tips, maybe how to discharge the tv? I've had it unplugged for 4 days now but I know that's not nearly long enough. I know i'm suppose to keep 1 hand in my pocket at all times while working on it. However, i'd really rather not get zapped so i'm trying to be as careful as possible. Any guidance would be great, thanks.
