Hi my fellow enthusiasts!
I am working on a tube swap in my Blast City that has a stock Nanao MS-2931 that needs replacing.
I got a backup monitor to replace it.
Info:
1) Tube pitch/angle is same
2) Montiors measure the same size even though the Nanao is supposed to be a 27"??
3) Measured the Ohms resistance on the Horizontal and Vertical ports on each CRT they read as below:
Nanao MS-2931
Horizontal (Red/Blue) 3.4 ohm
Vertical (Brown/Grey) 7.0 ohm
Craigslist TV
Horizontal (Red/Blue) 1.5 ohm
Vertical (Yellow/Green) 5.7ohmI
4) Pins
Both are 9 pin (same pattern) and have a matching yoke lengths as well
Question:
**Will this monitor work if I wanted to keep the craigslist Yoke on, or is this too far out of the 10% variance that I will need to use the stock Nanao Yoke and put it on the donor tube?**
Side question, if a CRT doesn't have the typical horizontal/vertical color pattern of Red, Blue, Yellow, Green but, instead has Red,Blue, Brown, Gray
*Does green =brown
Or does Gray = brown?
Thanks for any help you can provide!
Cant wait to learn how to do this and your help would be greatly appreciated
