Ditto on those Channel Master CRTs..

Shortly after I started out on my own in repair (1985), I put a Channel Master tube in a neighbors' 19" Quasar TV (Motorola built chassis). It lasted about a week. My supplier sent me another one. About a week again. The third one held on for a month or so. Finally gave up on CM and talked the supplier into a refund, and used a Sylvania rebuild. That one was still going when the customer left the area in the early 90s.
On the other hand, if yours is already over a quarter century old and still good, it might be a good one.
