Okay so the brightener is definitely bad I hooked it up to my CRT tester just to see what would happen and as soon as I put heater voltage to it it started buzzing away like a bad Transformer. I have two questions one is my brightener says I.E.H. Manufacturing Company New York New York parallel picture tube brightener and then it says cr64 5 wire cr64s 6 wire. I don't have a catalog to look up the brighteners I see on eBay. Is that CR number standard for all brightness?

I was reading through the video Karma page and trying to learn a little bit about the brighteners. A few posts said it's better to rejuvenate the tube after 4 hours of use then keep a brighter on it, is that true? And I see a lot of people don't like the B&K testers for rejuvenating, they're more partial to the Beltron because it is less of a burst. Mine has three rejuvenating settings called Dyn -Low, Med, and High on it is it still has rough as the earlier ones?
