I've had another look at the 'ticking' in the dark. It seems to be coming from a loop of wire which goes through the Transformer and feeds the final EHT Rectifier. The arc is over to the Core I think. Actually there are two loops. Earthing the Core cures it although the Core should be earthed via the Clamp. The main problem is that I've only got a couple of minutes to see it and fiddle about. Although the loops appear to have plenty of insulation they are dirty, and of course old. Perhaps I should at least clean them and check the Core Earthing. If that doesn't work I'll change them 'cause I daren't risk damaging the Transformer.
