Funny how green came up so slow that it didn't look like it was going to at all, come to find out it's the best one and the response is quicker than the others when first turning on the tester.. Red is sorta in the middle and the others are up past .8 on the beltron tester.. With 7 volts the red goes up past .8 too..
Got a zenith combo and all the guns are around .2 on the beltron, but when i raise the voltage between 7 - 8 volts they all go past the .8.. May be a process on both tubes to where they need to run with a picture to fully wake up.. I've got an rca ctc16 that needed a brightener due to a weak blue gun.. I noticed after months of using the set, that slowly i noticed alot of blue, took the tester and noticed the blue got to be way up on emissions and i took off the brightener... First roundie i got a few years ago is a zenith.. It had a dead tube in it, almost zero emissions after rejuv..
