if you want to try, you can find off brand flybacks (not listed above) that can be subbed. Its not easy but can be done. As an example I transplanted an entire fly tire for a Magnavox to a Sylvania. They were both RCA clones, but the Magnavox mounts the fly on the left side of the chassis (view from rear). It was still a clone circuit wise. The Sylvania was more I direct clone, both of the CTC-15 circuit.
If you review the schematics you can look for circuits that are basicly the same.
Funny thing was before I did the Swap of the Maggie fly I used some odd ball Admiral IIRC tire. The set worked but was just a bit down on horz power (the sides would not quite fill out and the HV had no head room. I tried increasing the screen current but it was really just not enough plate load from the fly. It would work fine if I bumped the line up to about 128vac. the cathode current was about 150ma max so the tire ran stone cold. I even considered just leaving it that way just to not worry about flybacks. I still have that transplanted fly somewhere as a spare for any CTC-15. Oh I think the orig fly was for a 19" Admiral portable.
