this monitor is new so it doesnt need a isolation transformer...

thanks
 
That monitor is a Wells-Gardner 7203 series. The 67000 number is part of the serial number. I've seen that series with both CR23 "type" tubes and CR31. To find a suitable replacement, you'll have to cross reference your tube number.

Measure the yoke

Do you have any extra tubes? If not, start hoarding old 19" tvs..
Do a search on tube swaps here and google.. Learn how to take an ohm reading from the yoke, then you'll be golden.
 
Well i do have some WG monitors with beat boards so thats ehy i was wondering if i could swap this board with the old beat one till i get some time to repair the old one

Luckyman, there's a couple 19s in the thrift shop near me (Impact Norristown), I think they're $5ea. Every one of those monitors I've seen (and I have a couple) have a thin-neck tube (CR-31).
 
There's your tube number....
A48JLL40X46 = CR31

Your model number is in one of your earlier pictures...
WGE1972-H0GS39L

The important part is the WGE1972...
WGE = Wells-Gardner Electronics
19 = ninteen inch tube
72 = 7200 series

Now with in the 7200 series, things get tricky. Wells-Gardner threw a couple curve balls. They made a 7201 model and a 7203 model.....which are TOTALLY DIFFERENT series....hell, there could be more. This is the two I've have personal experience with. I know yours is a 7203.....because of your pictures....and...well....I know what one looks like:D.
