Picked up a TV today that I was hoping would make a nice tube donor. Sadly, it's got some odd ball neck that I've never seen before... :(

It's a 32" and would have been pretty sweet!

I have seen necks that use the CR70 adaptor that look like that. They are fairly common on tube style PC monitors. What is the tube number?
 
It's a Sharp A80AJZ90X08

It's out of a freak'n huge TV...

That one is not on my lists, most likely because it is too new for my lists...

2003 is the date on the back of the TV... I've had great luck in the past 2 weeks, out of 11 TV's, 6 donor tubes and 1 that was too retro to salvage, so I'm saving it...
 
Were these mostly 19" TVs? What was wrong with the ones that you are not considering donors?

The "non-donors" were (2) 21" RCA's with 9 pin tubes and a 27" GE with a 9 pin tube.

The "successful" donors were (1) 32", (3) 26" and (2) 21", all with 10 pin tubes and suitable Horizontal and Vertical deflection values. I'm planning to use the universal chassis' on most (if not all) of them. I've got several GO7, K4700 and K4900 chassis' but haven't checked any of them to see if they could work with the 21" tubes.
 
Would you be willing to scavenge parts off of the chassis for me? I use the neck sockets to build CR series adaptors for rejuvenators.

No problem, I've got all the chassis' from the donors waiting to be blow-torched. I'll chop off the neck boards and save them for you.

If I don't get anyone willing to come get the ones I didn't gut, I'll do the same to them and save the neck boards for you as well.

Are you going to the NW Pinball show? If so, I can bring you a box full then. Or, if you'd like them sooner, I can ship them to you.
 
too bad your way up north i have a beautiful burn free 32" tv tube here, 10 pin, cant give ti away but cant bring myself to throw it away.. if anybody wants lmk...
