Default Re: CRT lost its tension band

You mention fitting a replacement CRT - do you have one? If not, soucing one might be harder than you think. To be honest, from years of handling CRTs, I don't think you need to be too worried about a 9" CRT, assuming it's less than, say, forty years old. Many of these small CRTs had a tensioning band as Argus 25 suggests and employed internal implosion protection.
Mind you, I'd run a mile from a pre-war Pyrex CRT!
