When I look at the Cathode "K" inside the CRT I see four connections to it from the tube base. Two connections have leads on them. One is a long one, one is a short one. The other two don't have leads on them. I would have thought that there was a circuit through the two cathode leads but I guess not. I also think my sketch is wrong on one of the leads that I show going to G1 it's actually going to G2 which I can't see because it's inside the CRT too far. I'm guessing it's the lead on the left side of the sketch that I show going the the G1.

With all that said How does this sound. The two heater leads are cap pins 1 and 12. Pin 11 goes to the K, the long lead. Pin 2 goes to G1 and Pin 10 goes to G2. The two heater leads will position the cap. I think I'll strip some single wire old 24 guage telephone wire for the sheath and slide it down over the bare leads with the longest reaches, attach some guide wires and put the cap back on. I don't know if this CRT is any good but I will find out soon.
