You should really start your own thread to discuss your finds rather than stepping all over Erics.

i dont remeber how to start a thread again, did once or twice before i got lucky before i guess, didnt mean to really step on his thread i was really showing him ,he said what he bought and i showed him mine , then it took off a life of its own sorry Eric.

sorry about Eric h didnt really intend to jump on your thread ,i was putting my pictures in document files of my tv's , and first thing i went to this website and was going to upload my pictures on a thread after i figured out again , i always see what everone talking about first ,and you must have just posted what you just bought, so i thought i would show you what just got home with . dint set out to jump on your thread or get that much responce about the tv's either i really was showing you. it just took on a life of its own ,so sorry about that.

That's alright, it turned out to be a dud anyway with a bad CRT.

Go to one of the forums like 'Early B&W and Projection TV', and there will be a 'New Thread' button in the upper left. Click on that and fill out the form that appears to start a new thread.

Here's a couple pictures.

The CRT seems to have gotten worse, I think it's gone to air.

The heater seemed dim to me when I first checked it, now it doesn't light at all.

I can't see the getter without pulling the tube and removing all the yoke stuff and that's nore work than it's worth.

This will probably have to go on the back porch with a blue tarp over it for now, even if I get a 12" tube I'd rather put it in something other than this.
