Gathering data on CRT rebuild value

[Steve McVoy]

I don't know if we have those guns. We are still trying to figure out what came from RACS.

At a guess,--You probably have--being that RACS was a French CRT rebuilder, these type delta gun tubes were just as popular there I think, as here.....
--How you would recognise them if there's no part-numbers on boxes etc and with 4 tons of stuff to go through--I guess time will tell.

When I worked in South Africa in the 80's I spent a day in the CRT rebuilder plant of the Co I was with, (Teljoy, Jo-Burg). Most interesting, wish I had taken pictures and more notes!
--Only thing I remember them saying was that the CRT needs to be only down to air for less than 24 hours--enough time just to change the gun, get it re-sealed and pumped--something to do with the phosphor, although no idea why....
