Anybody know of a source of 21FJP22's?

Harold,

Welcome to AK's Vintage TV Forums. Glad to have another collector/restorer on board. That is really unfortunate about your 21FJP22 mishap. That certainly doesn't occur often. These tubes took up so much space on dealers shelves that it became too expensive to keep them when they became dead stock so tragically most NOS tubes are now in landfill. I have never run across a NIB 21" color tube and rely on finding old sets with good CRT's as the only source I know. Even that is not an easy way to find these as most of these sets are now in landfills too. The CTC-16 was RCA's first really reliable color set, so once you get it going it should provide years of enjoyment.

Perhaps someone reading this could help Harold out?

Rob
