Any help is greatly appreciated.

Recently picked up a Club Kart and the things are not looking good on the tube. Three pins on the tube neck connector have sheared off. Getting them back on doesn't look possible, but I'm going to try with some conductive epoxy...or something. I don't know.

On to the real question....It's an RCA tube connected to a WG D9200. I talked to a guy at a local repair shop, but they no longer work in CRTs, so no tubes laying around. Dude said he could source one for me, but I have a feeling it will be expensive. So what can I replace it with?

It currently has a RCA A68AEG25X07. I can try to find another one of those, but what are my other options?

The WG is a 025A1569-001E P857

The tag on the frame is WGM2792-U0TS29K (zero or oh??)

Thanks for reading.
 
I think I have one these. I can meter the yoke, so at least you have something to look for.
 
It's an A68 tube, so there's a very good chance most any random curved or flat non-Trinitron 27" (29" in rest of world) would work that's been pulled from a $10 Craigslist TV. This will depend on pinout and how the yoke measures, but good chance. If you get desperate, I'll bet money on the 29" LG/Samsung tube from one of the current Wei-ya, aka Makvision, 27"/29" being a drop-in (but it's flat, which may be an issue).

Can someone confirm the D9200 chassis will work with a Makvision 27/29” tube? This would be great as I have extra D9200 chassis and a Makvision tube. Has anyone actually tried it? I don’t want to test it yet as my Makvision is new; but nice to know for spares. Thanks.

Can you find out the specs of the yoke on the Makvision?
