bought possibly the only tube color Capeheart in private hands

Just out of curiosity, do you know if the CRT is new or rebuilt?

I'm guessing rebuilt, or a new replacement since it's RCA badged and I've seen EIA274 (RCA made) 21AXP22s with other names like Philco on them.

The 6T8 is original Capeheart (can't see many more original tubes though) so if it has a date code I can check the CRT against it...Once I get to that.

I'm hoping to make a bench space for the chassis/CRT module tonight and start poking around in earnest in the next day or two.

The other set I got there has been eating up some time the last 2 days....the CTC16 I got as a CRT donor had a burnt fly show it's self on a variac power up, and I started trying to get the cabinet and chassis out of my hair yesterday and I cataracted the CRT from it for my Zenith Chancellor today.
