I think they were used on CTC-7/9, possibly others.
That ring was a bit warped, and when I tried to mount the yoke over it the poor thing cracked. It did not seem practical to mount it over the yoke so I'm just going to squirrel it away until I (or someone else) have need for it.

I had good monochrome, and some BADLY miss-adjusted color, was preparing to work on the color and the intermitant RF/IF/AGC issues had the courtesy to become full time bugs. I got the horizontal adjustments decent (I stole a replacement for the lin. slug from my 9-t-246), but never got time to post about it before I lost signal, and another daily driver set to add injury to insult.
