Well I got the heater supply right and wired it in to the pilot tv and the 2 inch b&w crt did light up but the picture was somewhat distorted and the screen would not light up unless I removed the g1 from the tube put it on and the screen blacks out so there must be some cutoff or bias problem that makes it not compatible with the pilot or there would have to be a mod to make it work because the g1 is needed because the brightness don't work without it. The voltages for g1 are very different between the small b&w tube and the 3kp4 tube. Higher for the 3kp4 so I tried resistors and caps I got it close but not good enough to view the picture being shown. The focus was good as well as the horiz and verticle drives for the plates as it filled the screen so I was close. Would have been nice to see black and white content coming from the pilot even though it would have been a 2 inch screen.
