Now that I found a trap (not the original  ) , and as mentioned, once I pull out and finish the CTC-90, it will be time to play with this monster, and first off, trying to work out how to safely (temp?) mount the CRT for the testing. |
The 630 had the front of the CRT simply resting on a cutout in the front of the cabinet that it was installed through, and the neck supported by the yoke. A piece of styrofoam tall enough to keep the neck from being crooked in the yoke should be fine. For servicing the set on its side while opperating a IIRC 5XP4 test CRT is recommended...I don't gots one so I use an 8AXP4 or once in a while just use the 10BP4 it came with.... DuMonts and their licensees are nicer on the bench because they tended to integrate the face mount into the chassis.
