The parts TV has a 25" pix tube in it just like this one has.
I'll also try your suggestions as well Zeno, is there a specific voltage that should be present at the Red Green and Blue Pins on the Pix Tube? Is that info in the Sam's Folder for this set that I have?
Sams will give voltages & CRT pin ##"s. You are looking for something way off.
The volts wont be exact but in the ball park. EX is the G-2's can adjust
between 250 V & 800 V. if off by 20% thats OK. Looking for BIG diference.
The 1974 jug is probably a 25" viewable, the old one probably 23" viewable
so wont swap. Also about 1974 Sylvania CRT's only lasted a few yrs.
IIRC they were called "GT-Matics" & the main chassis was 3 large modules & the CRT was called "Dark Light".
