Hello Marten its a phillips tube it could possibly be the original its a one owner from 1985 . I turned up the A1 volts which brought up slight green tint so . I carefully adjusted all three colours on a black and white picture showing no tints the contrast is good, but the picture brightness is very good but the A1 is at end of its travel slightly backed off because of flyback lines .I cleaned the HT cap and it does arc slightly at first turn on but. I have some HT sealant . I will use,if. I can find a tube/ I am prepared to travel to collect or pay reasonable costs regards David Grant .
