That's the plan, anyway.

What I want to do is have the green AXP, grey AXP, CYP, and green FBP all measured. I have date codes for all of them, so it will be interesting to see the progression of phosphors through the years. Ultimately I would like to have a database of them all built up, so we can see what response they have in order to shed some light on the exact colors a person will see when they use a certain tube in their set.

That way, we can replace subjective things (what people's eyes are seeing) with something objective and concrete (at least within the limits of the instrument). Only then will we be able to say 'tube x does in fact have an orange-reddish phosphor, where tube y has a more correct color.'
