I gotta agree with andy, the picture on this set is about as flawless as possible. I gave advise on the CR-70 in general, I apologize for not being more specific about this particular tube. After rereading your post Tom, I see a part I didn't pay close enough attention to. If it drops to bad on the life test, it's not the end of the world or a bad tube. At first, I thought you had a tube with a reading of 25%, not a filament drop of 25%, duh on my part. The life test is somewhat accurate but I wouldn't put too much faith in it. Any tube that tests good and equal on all three guns should be left be.
