Can a yoke go on any tube (with same pin config/crt size)?
I've got a k7000 chassis that works great but the tube i put it on is on its absolute last legs (faded missing colors, dim picture). I got this pristine TV tube that is useless for an arcade chassis (yoke is not compatible) but has same neck pin configuration. Can I swap the yoke off the k7000 tube to this TV tube? I've done a lot of tube swaps, ive never really switched yokes over to different tube before. Just wondering if its really that simple or if there are dangers (stuff will blow up)?
Thanks!
