Hey all , has anyone ever attempted putting a D5-100W black and white electrostatic crt in a pilot tv. The heater voltage for this crt is 0.55 so that would have to be right because it wouldn't take much to burn that heater out. And I know the high voltage would have to be lowered which is not a problem but the plate drives I don't know if they would be compatible with that tube or if it would be able to be adjusted. I would be nice to get it to work instead of the dreaded green tube and there are no 3kp4 tubes around anymore. A different mask in the front can be fitted for that tube even though the tube is only 1.5 inch instead of under 3 inch for the right tube. I took a quick look at the vert and horiz specs for both and the 3kp4 numbers are higher and the other crt IIRC is 50-60 volts less.
