Hi Al, that capacitor is a lower value compared to the ones normally found in a TV boost circuit (I think?) Having said that the old TV line output circuit was a bit of a power hungry grunt, so maybe you are on the right track, I must admit the idea had crossed my mind initially before I replied. I seem to remember that the TV boost capacitor provided part of the scans energy, mind you it's been a long time, I presume we are talking electrostatic scan with the 'scope, interesting.
