Thank you!

I'll keep an eye out... That tube and another of the same came from an out-of-business CRT rebuilder in East Los Angeles about 15 years ago. They were doing all the radar tubes for LA Airport, and some government work. According to AK member Sgt Rob, the military version 21" roundie tube is still in the US Navy parts inventory catalogue. If he, or anyone else currently in the Navy has a way to find out where they are, that would be the answer...
