Default Re: Emiscope 3/16 Crt

Hello Peter, I don't think EMI would have suggested this. The 3/4 became obsolete, hence the kit to fit the TA10. The TA10 and 3/16 CRTs were available for quite a number of years
as replacements. The TA10 gives a startling picture in the 1805. The 3/16 would have been a bit disappointing compared with the TA10.
Heater voltage and EHT differ widely with the 3/16 and the TA10. The TA10 is a tetrode compared with the triode 3/16 requiring focus modifications. Regards, John.
