23EGP22 awful?
Good evening -
The conversation about the picture tube in this set has got me interested and I'd like to ask a few questions if everyone's willing to oblige.
I've heard a few people on the forum say that the 23EGP22 picture tube is no good - usually in a Motorola/Quasar set. I'm just curious as I have one in my '65 Admiral and I always get compliments on the picture whenever people see the set.
AFAIK, my set had approximately 12 years of unknown use by the original owner and then possibly some time put on by her son. The grey scale sets up nicely, and the CRT bias pot is all the way CCW.
Is there something intrinsic to the tube that qualifies them as "awful", or is it a function of the set driving it, or a combination of both? What is it about the picture that makes it "awful"?
-Jim
