With a 6V, 2A power supply hooked up, the filaments lit up OK. The B&K showed low emission (but not zero) on red and green, and blue was in the low end of the Good scale. I tried the power supply on 7.5V (its next step) for a few seconds, and all three guns read higher (as you would expect), then back down to 6V. Now the blue gun is reading solidly in the Good range, almost half-scale, and staying there. I think it may be time to order some Vacseal!
Also on my list is to see if I could use my Sylvania CK3000 test jig with the CTC-2 chassis. I have already made the adapter for the CTC-4 and CTC-5, but this one is certainly different, with its electrostatic convergence at least.
