The replacement master inverter resolved the problem. The caps look good on the replacement and the picture is nice now. If anyone wants to challenge themselves to replace the blown IC on the failed master, let me know. They're selling for $15-30 on ebay. I also have an extra good slave inverter for this TV, with the shorter inverters, not the long ones.
Merry Christmas and thank you for the help.
