Does anyone happen to know what crt was used in a TA-129?? It looks like a bigger version of the 10BP4.

Thanks for the help

Cool, Thanks. I picked up a complete chassis with crt yesterday and want to check the crt. Its very strong. I love how heavy duty this thing is.

Im going to sell it or part it, whatever. Just couldnt let it go to the dump.

That's a good tube. At least I have never heard anything otherwise and I have one in a 1950 RCA TC-127 that makes as bright and crisp a picture as I have ever seen. Those old RCA chassis' were used for several years, so you should be able to locate SOME type of cabinet for the chassis. OR you could do what my grandfather did back then and just set the chassis and speaker on top of another broken set. My grandmother still shakes her head of I bring up Granddad's old peculiarities.

I'd be interested but LA is a long way from Chicago. Maybe the yolk? I'm having problems with my HV. I have a new flyback that I haven't found time to install. Of course I'd be interested in the whole thing if I could get it here at a reasonable price. Maybe we should move this over to the classifieds?
