Since my last post, I have been patiently waiting for one of those tubes to show up on ebay. I found one and it arrived a couple days ago. It tested perfect. Wow, finally something from ebay that IS as described! It was well pack and survived the USPS abuse! Had to thank that seller! Anyways, it is an 8XP4. Before I try this, I need advice if I can use the ION trap magnet from the 16" tube, or what you may recommend. I doubt this is an aluminized tube.
I am still 'aways' off from getting my bench set up. Seems when I started this about a month ago by cleaning out a room in my attic - then, somehow, it took the detour of becoming my sons room, which meant more cleaning to the very back room in the attic, in which I discovered "mouse central". Soooo - now, I am remodeling that room to mouse-proof, the next room for my son, then finally, his old room will become will become 'my tv/radio' shop, man cave - eh' ya get the picture... whole other story here... gonna be a while before I can warm my soldering iron.

If I could find the place called "Somewhere", I could find "Anything"
