While I haven't had Scotty rebuild a tube for me, I too have been in touch with him and found him to be quite straight up. He had warned me about the shortage of guns as well and that he was trying find a source but at that time whatever he had is what he had and when it was gone, it was gone.

He has also helped me on a couple of other items and I have found him to be knowledgeable and truthful.

Not to beat a point down but Bill at Moyer's told me that there were no more flyback transformers for my CTC-21 in their stock and they were gone some time ago and didn't expect to see any more even in aftermarket versions. So if he gets a hold of a batch, does this mean he lied? No! That is the information he had to work with.

Same kind of situation. Even with the internet, no one can know exactly what is out there completely. There may be stashes of 15GP22 crt's out there we don't know about...who knows.

So basically, IMHO, no one lied to anyone on this situation and to call Scotty a liar on this issue, I think is a mistake in a situation that is destined to be forever in flux.

Just my 2 cents.
