I did not mean to offend.
But let me clarify. I have used rejuvinators many times in the day, and had crt's last years. But true, depending on the shape of the CRT, it may not last long.
I in no way support cheating anyone selling defective or otherwise,merchandise. i merely meant that someone may want and could use the good chassis. Just like i might buy a Tek 7704A scope on ebay that has a bad crt, i could use the rest of the boards. Instead of trashing it, someone could use the parts.
I did not say to get the CRT rebuilt, i said to replace the TV.
Just wanted to clear things up.
Cheers, Dave
