Thanks Mark and Jess. INDEED I found a cold solder joint on the header on the deflection board where the black wire from the neckboard plugs in. I also noticed that the headers were quite corroded. Cleaned up the solder and the corrosion and the board worked...for about five minutes!
Not sure what's the issue now. Just went completely dead, no deflection or spot killer. No fuses blown. I'll look at it again in the morning. Once again, thanks to all for helping out. -Malcolm

If you know the tube is good, and, you know the neck board is good, then why did you ask about troubleshooting the "downstream end of the heater circuit"? I'm not sure I follow your logic.
So, given:
A) Tube is good
B) Neck board, including CRT socket and CRT is good
C) Voltage on D108 is good
and you're complaining of:
