Hello All,
Back Story:
Bought a cheap 2213A off Marketplace with fuzzy display issue,
Fixed issue by replacing focus resistors,
discovered screen damage in that there was trace distortion in lower half of display,
started looking for new CRT,
Found a part #154-0838-00 CRT on Ebay, according to Tekwiki this CRT is compatible,
My current CRT is part#154-0861-00 but I order it anyway (price is right),
get replacement CRT and discover that the HV lead is different and the trace rotation coil is smaller,
double check part numbers and find out Tekwiki led me astray and their CRT number index is in error,
CRT is out of a 2213
Today:
I have done some research and it seems that the HV voltage is higher on the proper 2213A tube.
Now what I would like to know is if anybody has tried this substitution and was it successful?
Failing that is there any tips on where to find a #154-0861-00 tube,
They seem scarce on Ebay.
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions
