What Monitor Chassis Goes With This Tube ?
grantspain:
multimeter, set to ohms
read each winding pair
blue/red are horizontal
green/yellow are vertical
i would expect a reading of between 1.8 and 2.6 ohms horizontal and 8 ohms to 15 ohms vertical for low impedence
photo of the pins straight on please but it looks like a standard tube to me
I think this matched to the kortek ktm-f 20 btw

Thanks for this - I will do the reading a little later today. Just to be clear, for doing something like this, do I need to discharge a tube ? Or that only applies if a CRT is all complete ?
And to confirm, its as easy as sticking my prongs into the plug that contains the 4 wires, r/b , g/y itself correct ? (see pics)- I do not need to find any secret weird place on the yoke ? And does polarity matter on this as far as which probe lead touches which color wire ?
The pin is a 9 pin. I will also get pics of that later - but I counted 9 pins.

no need to discarge as it already is
probes into the pins and away you go
a multitude of chassis will match this tube imo

Sorry for the delay. I got super busy last couple days.
So I straightened the pins out, and while doing so, seen that I missed a pin when I was counting. There is one hiding in some covered up cave like area. lol So there is 10 Pins - See Pic.
Next, I hope I did the Ohms test properly. So I took pics. I figured polarity didn't matter, so I just plugged the pins in to the colored wires you said. At first, my DMM was reading anything, and wouldn't;t on any setting until I changed it to "200" - then it read as the pictures show. Which I think is correct, because the readings are dead on what you predicted. But let me know if I did anything wrong and I will do it again as you instruct.
