I had a competitor who used to swing by my shop to get me to rejuvenate CRT's for him that his Sencore machine wouldn't do.

+1 - we had a 467, and two 470s. I've got
seven 470s now - all have bad hinges, but they will all test a tube, 'cept one with a molex connector issue. I gotta go through them one day and see how many adapters I have - many are homemade by my late father.
