Julian -
Thanks for the information. I still haven't gotten around to pulling the back off yet to look for an EIA number on the tube, but from everything I've read in this thread I must either have a tube with low hours on it or I've lucked out and gotten one that wasn't a Monday or Friday tube.
When I got the set, the tube had the worst case of cataracts I've ever seen - there was only a 4-5" circle in the center of the screen that was still bonded to the face of the tube.
About that 23" to 25" conversion - how did the new tube fit in the hole left by the old one? Did that include a new bezel around the CRT? different mounting hardware?
It's incredibly interesting to hear stories and information from people who worked on these things back when.
Jim
