Hi guys,

This is for someone else. They have a D9200 that was hastily removed and it looks like the ground strap that typically comes from the corners of the tube with a spring in the middle was completely removed, so they have no CRT ground to the neckboard. Can they just take a ground from the mounting tabs or metal attached to the implosion strap?

I'm not entirely sure how the CRT ground gets out of the glass (if that makes sense).
 
No, the strap must be in contact with the aquadag coating on the back of the tube. You can make one easily with the braid of a shielded cable and a traction spring.
