A 7JP4 tv CRT and a 7JP1 scope CRT are identical parts asside from phosphor color and you could interchange them with each other with out issue (as long as you don't mind a white scope trace and green TV picture).

GOOD TO KNOW. THANK YOU.

In 1968 the government passed a law that TV screens had to be sold and CRTs identified by viewable area diagonal and not envelope diagonal. Many tubes made after that point had a V as the first letter and the diagonal number was 2" smaller....So a 1966 25XP22 might become a 1969 23VXP22.
I LEARNED ABOUT THIS MANDATE BACK IN THE DAY. I TAKE YOUR POINT.

I don’t recall anyone discussing copper chassis? Benefits?
