I first used the Beltron in early 1970's. It was the quick and easy picture tube fix. We charged $20.00 for Color and $10.00 for B&W. Also we gave 1yr. on the tube. That was your money refunded on the purchase of a new or rebuilt tube. Most lasted the year. It has brought tubes back that others wouldn't touch. The 8080A's were the super restorers.
They took a somewhat softer approach on the tube. They changed the polarity on the capacitors which was easier on the tube with the same good results.
