Looks like 19" magnavox's i'm considering for a couple tube swaps. Anybody have any problems with this brand? i'll have to check the pin outs and deflection angle of course but was going to offer $20 for all 3.

The way I figure it out in-shop is to keep a cheapo led pocket flashlight handy. Try to look through the vents in the back to see the sticker on the tube.
If the tube # begins with A48 or 19 thats an almost sure-fire compatibility with all the older monitors. It doesn't guarantee thick/thin neck but sometimes you can see that through the vents too. If it begins with A52 or 20 chances are thats a 20in tube and while it may still be compatible with most chassis - they don't fit the arcade monitor frames in most cases. There's been others that had no problem so I'm assuming it depends on the type of monitor or the style of the frame.
If you do pick them up - please send me the make and model #s of the tvs and what tube #s they had inside - i've been trying to keep track...

My MCAFEES anti virus advises against using this site. Why?
Got 1 TV today, it's a 20", 90 degree deflection, 7 pin, tube# MVA51ADY00x...looks like its of no use to me.
How do you determine the angle of deflection on a tube? and what is the proper angle for arcade monitors?
IIRC it's embossed into the glass of the tube.
Most of them are 90°, I think.
