Hi Peter, Back in the sixties advertisers in the Practical Television were offering the 10" Cossor 108K CRT for a few pounds. There was a 10" Emiscope tube which was a rebranded Cossor, it was fitted in some HMV 1807 sets.
Apart from fitting a heater transformer for the 3/16 tube did you need to do any modifications to the line and frame timebases for extra scanning power?
The modification notes issued by EMI service for fitting a TA10 in the HMV 1804 and Marconi VT50 gave details how to do modifications to the timebases.
