zenith flyback ID

[ctc17]

Its not an RCA CTC anything. Its a Sears and depending on who the chassis was sourced from thats what it is.
FLY 273 is for CTC12 so we can assume it may be kinda like a CTC12 but its not to be called or referred to as a CTC. Its a Silvertone!

[timmy]

would you know if a ctc16 fly would work in place of the fly273? or i could refer to the sams with the ohms readings and compare the 2.

[ctc17]

Not without ALLOT of complicated modification.

The flyback is not the problem. Flybacks either short and dont produce any high voltage and melt the tube OR they internally arc and smoke.
Look somewhere else

[timmy]

because the 16 fly looks just like the fly 273 with only little changes like the focus and horiz centering pot other then that the bracket is the same, but i know it would have to be electricly the same.

[ctc17]

ctc16 fly is WAY different. It doesnt have any pots and the rect plugs directly into the flyback.

why dont you call moyers and buy a 273?

ohh, but looks somewhere else. the fly isnt the problem.

good thing im on the clock, one of my job requirements is repeating things to people who dont listen

[timmy]

moyers has been out of that fly for awhile now. if i need a flyback then the fly is infact the problem since they are not around and i just wanted to find even a used one that may work as a spare with some mods that may be needed.
