Is 17BP4B aluminized?

[Phil Nelson]

After sitting on the tester for a couple of days, the emission needle crept halfway up the scale, midway between Bad and Good.

I tried the Auto Restore function on my Sencore CR70 and now the emission tests well into the Good zone -- a definite improvement.

I hadn't tried that function before. Pretty fun. This CRT may be nearing the end of its days; it looks pretty weak on the Life test. It may be good enough to use during restoration, anyhow.
