I didn't find my Tek 475 manual in the first look. I'll look more later.
I did check in my ECG book and it shows an ECG (now perhaps NTE) 518, 8
KV and 5 milliamps. A few of those should handle the rectification and
some high voltage capacitors should handle the rest of the circuit.
There are also high voltage multipliers (primarily for TV sets) in the
ECG book that might be adapted. Distributors tend to loose track of the
idea that high voltage is still used with CRTs for TV and monitors
despite the prevalence of solid state circuits at low voltage.
