A faulty inductor with some windings short cuted will make switching
transistor go hot.

Well.. I replaced the voltage regulator with JT's part, it appears to
be working perfectly.. a solid 5V right on the mark. I also replaced C1.
The ghosting numbers are still there but very faint.. but the MOSFET
(M1, an IRF640) is still getting extremely hot. You know when a
component gets so hot it has that hot-electronics smell? It's that
hot. The voltage to the tubes is right on 170V. I didn't have to
adjust it after replacing the two components.
Should I replace the MOSFET? Any other suggestions? :)
