best tube to use in a GO7 tube swap?
« on: April 15, 2008, 02:37:57 am »
I have a burned out GO7 in a ladybug machine but was wondering if anyone here had "tube swapped" one?

If so what monitor (tube) did you use?

Im thinking about going to goodwill and getting an old tv but was wondering if there was a certain brand that would be easier to do!

Appreciate it!

what is the original crt number ?
ideally , staying with the same number tube will reduce difficulties.
many crt's have the same pin out and similar specs.
so, it's not that difficult . however, your skill/knowledge base may influence the outcome .

I'll take that G07 chassis back from you.

And you left the Keywiz instruction sheet at my house.  DOH!
