Even with a brightener, this CRT's about as weak as you can get and still make any sort of picture. The rest of the project should be straightforward. This chassis is a snap to work on compared to the behemoth DuMont I've been rassling around recently. And unlike a Predicta, the boards are easily accessible from underneath!
Can't spend any more time on it this morning. Gotta pick up my wife at the airport this afternoon. It will be fun to show it as a sorta-working set, not a pretty (but lifeless) decoration.

P.S. Ignore all the glare. If I want to take nice screen photos, I'll have to hang a big black dropcloth behind the camera, as well as cover the floor.
