There may be this resistor. But each crt neck does not have it's own resistor.
All three crts heaters are paralelled then connect to the Hv sweep board. On that board there is most likely a resistor that if bypassed would bump up the voltage. But it would do so to each crt. Causing the two better tubes to get worse alot faster.
I wanted to try powering the green crt with my homemade heater supply and then turning the projector on.
But running the other two crts would draw less current. Possibly bumping the other two tubes heater voltages much tooo high. Unless it is regulated??
As for old Tv's I do like them. But cannot store anymore than what I already have, and I only find TV's and other things in the garbage or at Garage sales. And since it's finally snowing today. I doubt I'll be picking anything new up till next year. So a CRT tester for me at this point would not be a very wise investment.
