Hello all, I picked up a CTC-53 Hotel Mural tv a few weeks ago. I am at work and can't remember the exact tube that's in it but I know it starts with 18. I have a spare 18VALP22 that looks the same but I don't know if it is interchangeable. The only difference between the two that I can see is the letters between "18" and "22", both are delta guns at the same deflection angle. Before I tear it all apart, I figured I'd check with the experts. I will check into the number on the bad tube when I get home. I could remember it until I wanted to post about it, figures. If it will work, I think the set would be good as new. Then I will have two like new hotel sets with no burns, engraving ect. which I think is pretty rare as these sets led a hard life with no one really caring about them. Thanks!
