Have had this television since I was 12 what model is it?

No pic but have sound. Do you have high voltage? Ground a good, insulated screwdriver at the blade to the chassis with a long wire and carefully hold it near but not on the CRT Anode connection. Work with one hand; keep the other hand in your pocket. You should be able to draw an arc about 1/4 to 1/2 inch or more. If no HV, don't go rushing to buy a CRT. Look at the horizontal output tube (the fat one above the HV cage). If the plate is glowing red, SHUT DOWN fast. The Horizontal Output tube depends on a signal from the Horizontal Oscillator. If the coupling cap is shorted, The Horizontal Output tube will draw too much current and burn out, possibly taking the flyback along with it.
