Opinions on Radiation, er.. Air King TV

[JohnCT]

I found an Air King on line that I'm considering buying - it's a 16C2 compact mahogany console. I had the schematic in my pile and took a look at it.

Very simple design but does have at least a power transformer.

It also features a 16RP4 CRT.

I'm looking to do a full resto on a consolette about this size. Are these any good? Is the 16RP4 a good tube? I'm looking for a solid performer and don't have a lot of experience with early 50s TVs. Any insight appreciated.
