I picked up about 10 TVs from the local Salvation Army store (for a buck a piece!) and cracked the first one open. I'm trying to replace the tube I broke on my G07 (of course that tube WAS perfect)

Anyway I OHMed out the donor TV at 54.5 and 2.8 VS the GO7 at 54.5 and 2.6. I've read a bunch of post here that on the go7 you should still swap the yoke.

Whatcha think?

And for reference the TV was a GE 19PC5703W with tube A48ACE26X

It's close enough to try without the swap of the yoke. If it works, then you're done and don't have to worry about the convergence.

But save the yoke and rings from the G07 tube if you toss the tube...
 
Was my thinking also.. give it a shot...certainly couldn't hurt

There's a guy here who collects info on this and documents it for everyone - if you know who i'm talking about please notify him about the tv you found so he can add it to the list.
