1.5 inch crt

I have this crt its 1.5 inch from one of those Panasonic tvs so I'm wondering if it can be used with some mods of course in one of those oscilloscope clocks that use electrostatic tubes but this one is electromagnetic. I would have to create a power supply for the hv and 3 volts for the heater. But if I do that and put the cathode in place along with the deflection places all wired in what I would be left with is the vert and horiz so what I'm wondering is can I apply a small amount of voltage to the deflection plates and just play around with different voltages until I can get a clock face in the center. Since the signal is already there for the clock I'm just not sure if the vert and horiz has to be pulsed and is why I was thinking just magnetically move the signal that's there already. Since electromagnets vary in strength with voltage.
