Hooked up my Sencore CR70 CRT Tester.
Initially completely dead at 2.35v Filament.
Read Bandersen stating that he surmised it was a 6v CRT by the
Filament current draw. Mine was drawing 17ma at 2.35v.
Courageously, I slowly cranked the voltage to 6.3v and the
filament draw was 90ma. Cutoff and Emission dead.
5 minutes at 6.3v Filament and at the Cutoff setting I could set the Cutoff
within the setting zone on the CR70 tester meter. Emission came up a little
but still deep in the red. When I switch back to Cutoff, it goes to zero and
leaving it at Cutoff for a few minutes it will rise to the settings on the meter.
Letting it bake at 6.3v Filament for a while.
Got any suggestions?
