5inch PDA CRTs for sale in UK

This may be of interest to UK members.
There's an ad in the current edition of Practical Wireless offering 5inch CRTs for sale for £5.
They come complete with mu metal screens and bases.
PDAs range form 4-10kV
Phone number is 01425 610 669
email libria@waitrose.com
Location is Hampshire UK

Sounds like a bargain but I would advise taking a test meter to check heater continuity if you are intending to buy one.
Pity he's not offering any EHT modules.

BTW I'm finding PW a reasonable substitute for the late lamented Wireless World.
A large number of articles are micro controller based and ads feature single board computers.
Worth a look.


Cheers,


Graham

Thanks Graham, and sorry for the slow reply too.

I'm in the UK but things are busy and I doubt I'll have the time to pick up these CRTs, though to be honest I now have enough 5" P1 and P7 CRTs for the foreseeable future. But others in the UK or nearby Europe may be interested. So thanks for the information...especially as they have the MuMetal screens and bases/sockets at such a good price!

By the way, are you sure about that email address? With ".co" rather than ".com" I would have expected a ".uk" on the end.

Hi Dave,

I see what you mean about the email address.
I'll check the PW ad.
In the meantime you could try phoning him/her

Cheers,


Graham
