I have been waiting to hear from Scotty as to when he is going to make the next attempt on the 15GP22 project. When he has set a date, I will be traveling to Iowa to spend a couple of days observing and taking video of Scotty working his craft.

I would then take the raw footage and make a nice DVD using the video editing software I have. Steve has volunteered to place the video on the ETF website for anyone to view. I will also make available DVD's for anyone that wants one.

So the video end of this thing is already in the works. Just need to coordinate with Scotty's next attempt at the 15G project.

I will post back here as soon as I know something more definite.

Scotty rebuilt my 21FJP22. I would love to see how he does it. This whole thing sounds promising for the future of vintage TV. All of us who collect vintage TVs or just have one that is used regularly are likely to need CRTs at some point.
