21AXP22 Vs 21FJP22

Even on this forum I see pix of restored color sets where the person who restored it had both the contrast and brightness cranked. In the early days doing that pretty much washed out all the colors and inaccuracy was the result.

Until rare earth phosphors were used even the early and mid-60's sets were prone to the same problem. They always taught us to set up a good black and white image and then add the color. Black levels were key. So I've seen some excellent results from both tubes, but there again it's all a matter of set up and alignment.
