@djlink I think that kind of tone (as opposed to a short clack) sound was typical of aperture grille (trinitron) tubes.

@luisfcorreia @djlink I'm so sad that TV was trashed (I carried it to the electronics bin myself). It had all the niceties, including multiple SCART inputs with RGB and stereo sound. The colors were awkward and it had a weird smell. In hindsight, probably leaking capacitors. @carlosefr @djlink you've seen my oldest CRT, it was now donated to Inercia still have two other 14" up north which I have to bring back |
