I managed to bring home an early 8" TV picture tube and
a small (PMT) Photo Multiplier Tube.
A good friend David responded to my request looking for
early TV CRTs and the PMT came from a local ham that had
heard me talking about my collection on one of the
local repeaters.
This is the first early TV CRT I've gotten all the rest are
O'scope and radar tubes.

The CRT display that started life just last fall
has about reached critical mass... :)

Ron, what would be the value of that PMT? I have one of those around here somewhere.

I don't know that it has any value, it was given to me.
