Sony KV-2643R score

Always wanted this one. Well I picked it up curb style tonight down the street in my neighborhood. A sign taped to the CRT says not working. Oh well. Loaded it up in the back of a Prius and drug it home.

Red gun is extremely tired. (Typical since its driven the hardest) Green almost there too. Blue is bright as day... Typical for these early 26 inch Trinitron CRTs.
Played the screen and drive game and was able to achieve a somewhat watchable picture.

I've changed a few of these Trinitron CRTs in the past. Never attempted a rejuvenation. From what I hear its usually a no go.

I'd have to tap it in to my SENCORE cr161 as it doesn't have the proper socket.

Anyone attempted a successful rejuvenation on one of these ever? I figure maybe give it a shot. Got nothing to lose. Trinitron CRTs are not happy when bumped huh..
