I think I paid around $125 shipped. It was a 17" tube, which I think is a little harder to find than the 16 or 21" tubes. This one was almost flat top to bottom, curved from right to left, kinda like a Triniton. It was a little odd. 17HP4a I believe. I have seen tubes for more, and some for less. Look to see if yours has a "brightener" connected. If so, that is a sign that your tube is flat. If it doesn't have one of those, the tube may have hopes. There are a few tricks I have learned that I can share to help bring the tube back up some. Read my 16AP4 thread Icon_smile .
