I'll get back to this project for realzies shortly, I've been working on that radio.
I burnt myself on a 23Z9 in a GE 9". There was a shorted cap in the vertical sweep circuit. It's a low B+ set so the tube won't red-plate, but it's still running extremely hot. Find out what's wrong with the vert circuit or you'll destroy the new tube.
