19" WG 6100 to 25" ?'s
« on: June 01, 2006, 10:41:03 pm »
I'm looking to do this project with a new 25" tube.  1st, where can I get a new 25" tube at the best price to do this with?  Also, is there a post or webpace where I can get instrustions on doing this swap?

There are no 25" vector monitors. The circuitry (and yoke) was never designed for nor intended to drive a 25" tube.

Amplifone made a 25" used in SW cockpits.

We never had any Star Wars cockpits on our route. I never knew they existed. I have never seen a 25" vector monitor. We had plenty of those crappy 19" Amplifone monitors. I ended up throwing every one of those Amplifones in the garbage back when they first came out. They were so troublesome that we ended up replacing them with Wells-Gardner vector monitors.
