Does anyone have one of these specific models? I just got mine and have found some helpful docs on-line but am unsure which adapter is the correct one to fit the monitor yoke. None seem to fit and the setup guide online does not give the proper matching numbers correlating to my specific adapter numbers.

Thanks.
 
I have a 467 and the manual I have says 467/470 maybe I can help.

typically mine lists the tube # to match, do you have a tube #?
 
Chances are pretty good that you need a CR23. What monitor chassis is attached to the tube?

The tube number is the most useful tool in identifying what adaptor and set-up ranges you need.
 
The pdf file for one tube I have references adapter CR23 but I think I may not have enough adapters.... my adapters for the 470 are low numbers (1-10). The closest adapters are #3 and #4 but they both don't seem to be an easy fit and I don't want to force them.

See pic of the unit....

One monitor I'd love to zapp would be a med res 25". Wanna make sure I know what I'm doing before frying anything, especially that monitor.

The adaptors I see will not work for your tube if it needs the CR23. The CR23 is the most commonly used adaptor for arcade use, and likely fits your med res monitor as well.

Thanks. Yes, I took a look around ebay and saw there were higher adapter numbers with other 470 units (dammit!). Put a call into BK and they still sell the CR23 so I can at least get that one.

Good to know when buying a rejuvenator to make sure ALL the adapters or the ones most commonly needed for arcade use are there before pulling the trigger. grrrr
 
As you found out you are going to have to make or buy the adapter (CR23) for that monitor. CR6 is the only useful one that came with the kit. It's for b/w tubes. So far I've used CR6, CR23 and CR31.

I'm not sure what B&K charges for one, but it's pretty easy to make the adapters as well from junk neck boards. Others on here, including Oryk if I recall, sell homemade adapters from time to time.
