hi all would this rca be worth trying to get, it appears to have a new crt its like a very light gray not the green, which the replacements tended to look like that as an identifier that it was changed, rca 21-ct-661u. this set came with a 21axp22 and are these 21axp crts interchangable as far as the pinout with the 21fb or 21fj are they electricly the same?

All 21" Roundie color tubes are electrically the same. It takes a bit of work to mount a glass tube in place of a 21AXP but it is quite doable. I speak from experience(with a CTC-4).

A CTC-4 Seville? Of course it's worth getting.

If you don't want it, share the source with the rest of us. A lot of us would be willing to own one of these.

If you took the time to post about it before getting it, it's already gone. At least, that's the way it seems lately. Gotta get up pretty early to score these days, I've had to leave work in the middle of the day to grab a set 2 states away. Not easy, but that's the price one pays for lust.
