I see you have one on the way.
The most important things on a CRT checker are getting ALL paperwork ( set-up guide, manual & schematic), & a good assortment of adapters. Sencore also
had a universal adapter that tests almost any CRT if you learn how.
They were very reliable as a rule. The main CRT cables on Sencores failed
on all 3 of ours but thats with HEAVY use. The commonly used adapters
also were troubled. Last thing is get a MODERN checker from apx 1970's up.
As for brands either B&K or Sencore is the way to go IMHO. We used the
Sencores most but has a few B&K's also.

CR70 Update

Hello Everyone,

Thanks again for the advice. I received the CR70 earlier this week and finally had a chance to use it on my recently acquired Zenith System 3 console. The CR70 is fully functional and allowed me to determine the CRT condition.

The CR70 included the operation manual, 1991 Set-Up Guide and all adapters including the universal.

Looking forward to using this on my other TV's in my collection.

Regards,

Bobby
