Dave - Id take this any day over what happened to my RCA Hi-Lite 21FBP22 - neck just neatly sheared itself and went to air right where the blue lateral spring rests

Ugh...that really stinks. Was that tube a rebuilt, or one that had been in service and suddenly broke? I have not seen that happen yet, but I'm always careful about not making yoke and purity clamps too tight, and I have wondered about the tension on the blue lateral magnet, more than once.
