Rca 9-t-79

This is the chassis and 19AP4D from one of the prospective cabinets for the color prototype, I couldn't resist stuffing some caps in it just to see what it would do. Looks like it would be a very good performer if given some more parts, perhaps I should hang on to it? Vert linearity is very poor, probably some drifted resistors/lin pot or the degeneration cap from the cathode of the vert tube. Only bad tube I found was one section of the 12AU7 video amp, replaced it and it's good to go now. Took a total of 3 hours to get it this far, the original lytics formed up perfectly running cool as a cucumber for longer than 30 minutes.
