H1809 HV diode: How to test?

Hi everyone,

A while ago I wrote you-all about my "bz woes", where the monitor had
deflection and tube glow, but no picture and, apparently, no HV.

I worked up the courage and removed the HV cage. Suspecting the HV diode
first, I removed it and tested for continuity. It shows an open circuit in
both directions.

Does this mean it's bad? And if so, where can I find a replacement? It's an
H1809, by the way.

Thanks everyone,

Anthony R.
