well i did it again,this is the 2nd 7jp4 that i won off of e-bay that is dead..both had boxes included,odd thing someone had tried to glue the socket back on on the first one and its gone to air,you can even see the super glue running down INSIDE the neck of the tube,the other 7jp4 i won a few days a go
was in milwaukee,so yesterday i took off of work early and drove there,this one also with box,as soon as i got hope i tried it,it is dead,dead as in dead..with no revival even on my 1500.00 sencore crt analyizer..it looks cooked around the filament like it had many hrs on it..back to green screen time..i guess you cant really buy any of these tubes unless you see its operation first..
so used 7jp4's off of e-bay is a big NO-NO,and a what a waist of time and money
