Is a A48LRH93X tube a good donor for K7000?

[Derick2k]

Got a 19" TV with this tube in it, trying to see if its a drop in to use with a K7000. Looks like a thin neck, so its a CR-31??

Way to test the yoke would be red/blue - yellow/brown??

Looks like a CR-31, 8 pin. Measure the inductance and resistance on blue/red and yellow/brown. Match those values up to known k7000 values.

Found a post from Ken way back, looks like the equivalent to a A48JLL90X so it should be a drop in replacement no yoke swap needed, but will take readings regardless.
Now to see if my K7000 has a matching neckboard.

Keep us posted on your results. I have also been getting prepared for the mini cute with a few K7000s on an A48JLL40X (CR-31) and an A48KRD82X (CR-23).

Been running into THIS ISSUE on both tubes using multiple chassis.

Oh man, I hope some of the crt experts that have done tube swaps chime in on what could be the cause.

I have several options going right now the Cute repro:

K7000 with this tube swap

or the following with a scaler
Dell 2001FP Ultrasharp 20" LCD
Dell P991 or P992 crt monitor

If the tubeswap dont work, will just go with the lcd and call it a day

Some P992 monitors came up in my area too. I am trying to secure them in case the K7000s don't work out.

The folks at KLOV straightened me out. I had the dag wire going to the wrong ground. Nice clean image (except for some convergence) on my donor tube now.

Is the 2001FP known to fit in the Mini Cute repros?

Oh, sweetness! Ill report when I do some testing, Im considering picking up another of these to have a spare just in case

I asked @hursit and he says it should fit, but there is no mounting solution for it so you have to make your own. I'll make something out of acrylic to test fit and possibly send out make some out of stainless steel if Im happy with it.

I got a Dell P993s which should be the same size as the P992. It has an 18" viewable screen. I am not sure it will fit the Mini Cute.
