17HP4,17RP4,17KP4, anyone have?
 

I found a flyback, and a power transformer for my packard bell

According to my old CRT tester, the tube is weak, I am trying to get a second opinion from a TV shop this week.

Just weighing my options before i FULLY commit to restoring this TV.
anyone got one of these #s lying around?

Thanks.
Steve

Well, looks like my project hit a wall, the CRT is bad and wont rejuvenate. MOYER doesnt have one.

Keep on checking Ebay. Any R,K and H are really hard to find. You might consider a rebuild from Hawkeye.

I've got a Sylvania 17HP4/17RP4 that you're welcome to, it's in what's left of an NRI TV kit that I picked up years ago. I've not checked it yet but I suspect it's not got a lot of time on it. Where are you located, shipping might get difficult? I've also got a couple of 17AVP4/17ATP4's that I need to find a new home for, one of them has low emission but the other is good. I'm actively trying to reclaim some room in my shop/garage and some of this stuff I'm never going to use.

Thanks Randy.

Im located in Woodland, Cal. 95695

Do you have a tester you could run on the 17rp4/17hp4? its an EXACT replacement for what i have.. If its good IIIIIIILL Take it :)

Steve

I'll have to dig it out and bring it to where I can get power to my tester, I've got a Beltron and a very late model Sencor tester, I'll try and let you know this evening.

Randy, I sent you a PM regarding this 17AVP4.

Looks like youre gonna get a little more room in your garrage Randy :)

Steve, I checked the tube with the Beltron it took awhile to wake it from its long sleep but it checked nearly full scale after about 5 minutes. I ran the life test and it holds up well. I suspect it was bought for this NRI kit and from the looks of the chassis and solder work I doubt it ever worked well enough to watch. I'll try to get a shipping quote as soon as I can find a suitable box and make some packing for it, maybe next week or so. I'm in the middle of a big project right now rebuilding the engine in my convertible, Momma wants to do some cruising asap....

Thats awesome Randy... You just made my day!!! :thmbsp:

Let me know a ship quote when you can, And if by chance i run across a box myself, ill let ya know... i even have a dud tube i can use to make a shipping package with. :)

Good luck with the engine, i can relate, ive done a few in my time in fact im also in the middle of a restoration a 1968 torino GT.

Again thanks for the generosity :)
