Sockets are all pretty much the same. ! K resistors then the CRT
connection & the spark gap. Sub almost any to test BUT be sure its
off a high focus ( 6KV ) set.
As I remember no scope or analist. Means you you cant trace or inject.
In the day almost every set was fixed with just a Simpson 260 BUT
once in a while you had to get out the big guns.

I disconnected the focus wire altogether.
