Here, I thought that the 23EGP22, I bought was a real gem. Rebuilt by Video Display Corp in the mid-80's, with a 2 year warranty on it. It's even a rare-earth.
I thought to myself, This set's going to have a great picture. I checked the tube before installing it. Zip, nutin, nada, not even a heater glow. I even started it at a lower heater voltage. Looked like it went to air, but no white on the getters.
When sent, it was packed very well and shipped by Fed-Ex. Both boxes were in good condition, so it didn't appear to be mishandled.
I don't think the tube was checked before it was shipped.
