I wouldnt. Its risky buying NOS modules. If its unsealed it may be
a returned dud. A lot of the stuff on Ebay is someone selling off an old
shop & knowing nothing about anything. If it was DEFINATELY a former
parts suppler selling his NOS you could probably trust them.
Watch the Craigs list for free TV's. Investigate any model starting SG57 or SG27.
They were common sets. You may find a free one.

Is it worth buying them "in case" or should I just plan -- ultimately -- to not repair it if it becomes unrepairable with the current boards?
