Picked up another tv on the side of the road.

The tube is A51KRE83X.

Yoke readings:
Vert: 15.8
Horiz: 2.8

Socket adaptor:
B+K socket: CR-23
Sencore CR7000: socket 1

I didn't see any direct yoke readings on the donor list. Let me know if it is a direct yoke swap for something.
 
Too bad it is not a CR31 socket.... would be a good replacement for the Sanyo XM-2001N.

And just to clarify a bit like others are saying -
The numbers like "51" and "48" are measurements in Centimeters, so when you convert those...

A51 = 51 centimeters is equal to 20.08 inches. (20")
A48 = 48 centimeters is equal to 18.90 inches. (19")

So if you are trying to match a tube, that is usually the FIRST thing to look at. Saves ya from looking the socket type up if the size is wrong to begin with.
And this works for any size tube, whether it be a 13", 19" 25", 27", etc....match those first numbers then verify the socket type.
 
Another quick tip:

Usually I have found that the model number of the TV will have a 19 in it, if it has a 19" tube. Pretty handy if you are on the side of the road with no tape measure.

See how the model number of this TV is "T 20 064"?
 
What socket does the tube from a Hantarex MTC-9000 use? I have the chassis here and the neckboard fits but I don't have the tube to check the socket. It uses a 20" tube.

That should work for a K7000 series chassis, as long as the neckboard is a 10 pin. I have a 19K7302 that ohms out similar to that.

The CR23 tubes seem to have been used in the newer TV's ... at least that's what I'm seeing. I've been searching for a month now on CL for a compatible thin neck tube (8 pin CR31) and haven't found one yet.
 
Usually the newer cheapo Walmart TVs have thin necks. I think the last entry on my list was one I recently swapped into a K7000. The slightly higher than trash ones are the ones that have the fatter necks, like Zenith, Daewoo, RCA, etc.

List link is in my sig.
 
Today I just picked up a Samsung with the same tube. :(

I asked the neighborhood TV repair guy if he had a 19" that he was going to throw out and he said yes and gave me this.

(Time to head across the street and take a look at the TV a neighbor put out on the curb).
