New vector monitor questions

Hi Tom and James and everyone,

I'll ask the place around the corner from here if they
can wind the yoke, but I'm sure they'll ask me what
carrier and parts to use, did you have something planned
for that?

I'll scan the schematics when I get a chance and access to
the scanner, it will
probably be early next week. Some pages are A3 so I'll
join them together.
I'm copying and mailing a copy to Paul too.
As far as I know the darlington modules are not made anymore
and hard to get but there are others around for a new design.

I worked on the solar car racer at Melbourne University!

I'm wondering about this above too, I assume if the best raster monitor
is picked, with lots of useful drive circuitry on the CRT neck pcb, like
some have, there would be minimal circuitry required for the vector
board, just deflection, small rgb interface if needed and whatever other
minor
control lines may have to go to the raster chassis.
What part number new WG display is it and are the schematics available
for it?
The WG 6100 has a 19.5KV HV, what do raster monitors have?
