I'm a recent joiner to this forum, and only recently been bitten with the vintage TV obsession, but aren't 630s like the most common postwar TV ever made? Must be tons of used parts available, perhaps from someone here.

BTW, on another thread, I was chided (gently!) about not doing a full recap on an old Andrea TV before doing any other work on it. My rationale was that if it had a bad yoke, HV transformer, or CRT (metal cone), it would be a waste of time on a rare bird like the Andrea. Once I verified the hard parts were good, I scheduled it for a full recap.

But I don't think you have a dead end here with a 630 clone. Best of luck.
