It also has a damn good picture... I definitely don't want to part it out. I want it to go to a good home.

Then again, I may keep it... dunno... It being a big console TV doesn't help its case, neither is the fact that it defaults to channel 2 if you turn it off then turn it back on.

I'm torn on this one.
Yes, that set uses a delta gun tube and that board you see around the CRT neck with all the controls is the convergence board. As you can see, there is much more to the convergence circuitry on a delta gun tube than on an inline tube.

You are lucky to have such a good picture on that set. I wonder if the CRT is original. Many of those later delta gun RCA tubes didn't hold up. I've seen many that were weak and/or shorted.
