This is turning VERY interesting!
modern crt's have thin necks. very similar to the neck on old b/w tubes.
Maybe we could use old b/w monitors with new color tubes intended for domestic tv use.
We would need to build a new gun-drive pcb but that is pretty easy.
I guess the real questions are these.
1 does a 20" color tube use the same level of HT as a b/w one?
(i could look this up if i could be bothered to find my b-zone & defender manuals)
2 what would happen if a yoke from a 13" b-zone tube was fitted to a 20" tube???
