Yeah, well, Tom Uban has located a rebuilder that does do exactly what I
described, at a very
high price, with no garuntee they won't destroy the tube in the process.

BTW, the CRT on HP terminals is VERY unique, it has an unsusal aspect
ration, which also means
that it has a rather unusual deflection asseembly. The tube is about 3
times wider than it is tall!
