With a bunch of radios, I got a roundie tube, about 6", Motorola the other day. I haven't worked on a tube TV for 30 years. So, Brenda, you can continue to tell me what to do (or what not to do).

By the way, the picture tube HAD a light colored gasket where it met the front of the chassis. It took a while to figure out what this even was since it was a large pile of goop now. Anybody know where to get some sort of replacement. The picture tube is just hanging by a bracket near the yoke.

If you have rust between the vanes, I wonder how you get the NJ in between, and how you then wipe it off.morzh — 12:02 PM
