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.
Anything useful will be a bit hard to find, ( plug-in compatible ) that's not way overpriced

the closest thing I can find, so far is a 8KP4 at the ETF, same general wiring and biasing, & it won't roll off the table,
the only major dif, is electrostatic vs magnetic focus, & that most likely wont matter for repair.
