Portable TV tubes are still available if you're willing to build the supporting circuitry. This one is 6 x 4.5cm, white phosphor, magnetic deflection, and some are sold with the TV frequency yoke. https://www.ebay.ca/itm/8LK3B-vintage-CRT-tube-3-6-cm-x-4-5cm-USSR-Soviet-Oscilloscope-NEW/254462273192 (A friend and I are trying to integrate this tube at the moment.) --Toby -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
