By the way, sometimes you can get the boards cheaper from second
sources, like ShopJimmy or Tri-State Module.

Thanks for the source suggestions. Seem to be plenty of power
supplies around for this model TV for $50 up but the BM5 tuner (main)
board is much more expensive, plus there are few (if any) available.

The BM5 board must be first to die from lightning strikes.

Looks like there may be people who repair these boards for around $200
but this model TV is only worth $200 in good condition.

Probably not worth pursuing further.
