I'd rather have an original late-revision deflection board with an LV2000 daughterboard. Top-hat TO3s like the OnSemis are hard to kill and just about every failure mode for the K6100 has been documented. The devil you know...

This thread over @ KLOV has a source for rebuilt CRTs and a poster claims you can use a tube from a WG K4900 in a K6100 as long as you swap over the vector yoke. http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=101278

I'd go warehouse hunting for an old converted machine with a dead K4900. Chances are you wouldn't have to pay much for it.

Thank you for the identification.  Are these boards considered better
or worse than the originals?  I am finding conflicting information.
Basically I am wondering if its best to restore this monitor with a
tube that doesn't have a big hole burnt in the center, or just keep my
eyes open for a complete original 6100 with a better condition tube.

Thanks.
