Hello there,
Iwas wandering how to disconnect CRT anode caps easily? The one on the Bush telly seems to be difficult to move under resonable force.
I do not want to force it more than is needed in case the CRT implodes or the plug and socket is damaged. I would like to remove the CRT from the chassis of this Bush telly as it makes it much easier to get to components mounted on the rear side of the chassis without the CRT being in the way (and I can clean the dust off of it !)
Thanks
