What are your thoughts on the air core high voltage transformer that RCA started using around 1950? I'm assuming it had something to do with the new wider deflection CRT's, although other manufactures seemed to be using something like a ferrite core flyback transformer with good success. It appears that they used that air core on everything from a 12" to 19" CRT.
