I have a couple of copies of the RCA Receiving Tube Manual on my computer (two different years) but I don't know if I can upload them on here on not because of how big the files are. |
Hi Members.for large file transfers,I like to use mediafire dot com. Free 10 gig storage.after you upload the file,just send the link to the file to the recipients. Easy. RonL

I think I got it. Rc 30 1975 172 pages at 37 mb. Assuming nc is the blank areas or no pins, I've labeled 2 and 8 and seems to check out. Got fluctuating numbers meaning good. :) 👍

Are you trying to test the tube or the TV chassis transformer? Generally, I pull the 5U4 and power up the TV. All the tube filaments should glow. Then, if you have a meter that can handle 1,000 volts AC, carefully place the probes into the 5U4 socket holes for pins 4 and 6. You should get something between 600 and 800 volts AC.

Ok, pulled 5u4, put probes in 4 and 6, plugged in. All tube lit and got 630-636 on meter.
|
Cool. Sounds like you have a good power transformer.

It would also be nice to know if the CRT was good too. I guess you don't have a CRT tester though? |

It looks like it's replacement CRT so you never know it might not have many hours on it.
