Very nice to hear that the equipment has arrived safely at the museum.
"Return to USA of RCA non-processed CRTs". This sounds like the answer to the question I first asked last February in this post: http://www.videokarma.org/showpost.p...6&postcount=11

Hi Chris,
indeed, this line item describes the 10x 15GP22's sent by Molnar/Galanter/Folsom jr/Kubbe to RACS. I have asked Steve, as he unpacks the shipment, to make it a priority to check the condition of the returned tubes and inform their owners. No news yet, but 4 tons is a lot of stuff to unpack. From memory, 4 tubes were processed, some had up to 5 frit applications + oven passes to try to solve the Anode ring leakage. Also from memory, one tube has a new gun installed, is under vacuum, and from RACS's quote before the shipment left France, the Getter was still silver. The gun was not activated because if the tube leaked, the gun could be retrieved without having to replace again the Cathode and Filament.
