Terminal pinout

Electrical assignments shared by every tube using this base designation.

No verified pinout is recorded for this base designation.

Section ratings

1 physical section, each with unique specifications.

No fixed ratings are recorded for this section.

CRT-specific optical, focusing, deflection, accelerating-voltage, scan, capacitance, and safety data are retained in TUBE_SECTION_PARAMETER because the locked promoted fields primarily target conventional electrode sections.

Source-dependent data

Operating conditions by source

Each block preserves the test conditions and published values from one reference. Values from different sources are intentionally kept separate.
