This has me inspired to get the one I used to own working... It's in the hands of another Los Angeles collector, and he's 50/50 on letting it be worked on. I checked the CRT, and it's OK. I Variac'd it up, but the selenium rectifiers were acting up, and I never went further with it. I didn't realize they were so desirable at the time. Heck; I should probably have kept it, and I won't upset myself nor anyone else by blabbing what small price I sold it for... I'll talk with the owner, and see how he feels about it now.
