I would not hook any game systems. They kill the sync separator i.c and there were discontinued 30 years ago> they are great sets I had one the customer gave me about 85 and it needed sync i.c's I had one from a junk set I used for a long time, but I don't remember what I did with it, but it had a fantastic picture. that's a great find. I am happy for you.

Thanks for the heads-up. Does this only apply to Sylvania sets of this era?

Edit: Another shocker: the CRT had very good emissions on all guns! However, it didn't do very well on the life test. I ran auto-restore and now it passes all tests with flying colors, and makes a nicer picture of course. My camera doesn't do it justice. Also, most of my TVs including this one seem to not like my free basic analog cable. Finally, the top of the picture is curved downward in full screen and letterbox presentations. It looks slightly uneven on the bottom as well.
