tube ok, board dead. Done plenty of Nanao sims so this time decided to do a HD version

The whole thing is metal and plastic, no wood. Typically these are very rusty at this age so I am very happy with its condition

Even if that Nanao chassis was dead, it could still be used for a tube-swap!  I don't see any burn-in, from those pictures.

Most likely that Nanao is a dual-sync.
Still, Nanao 24khz monitors are a rare breed, and can be used for a candy cab transplant!  Please don't trash it. Either sell it or donate it to someone worthy of such a godly monitor. Clearly you're a mere LCD mortal that should not possess such a heavenly CRT.

I am saving the nanaos for my battle city cab so never fear they will be resurrected :)

If I am playing game sin 1080P then I don't want them downscaled to 24khz. pooooooooooo

Your right about the rust. The twin I'm restoring is the same version (all metal and plastic) and it has a lot of rust.

Most of it is just surface rust but it's worst than that around the fan vents. Hopefully a good sandblast of the base should clear most of it.

Hmmm... 1080 lines is high def for gaming now eh?  Why didnt you go a CRT and do 2048x1536 or higher? Even 1600x1200 or 1920x1440 is going to give you more and a better aspect.
