I also have an NOS Channel Master 25V which, to me, didn't have as nice a picture as the others.... Gentlemen....???

What is wrong with the CRT in it? I'm inclined to run a CRT till is is weak and looks bad even on a brightener (though tracking can go before that).

I personally favor Zenith CC CRTs wherever they can be used.
