I am very interested as well.
Would love to have the code and pcb design and even a kit.
I read through the posts, but didn’t see anything other than the video. Thumbs up on it too. 😊

The tube is a RFT B7 S4-01
It‘s from an EO174A Oscilloscope.
Nice green and pretty good to focus and linearity to the edges.
The tube and first version of PCB could be viewed at https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zTyXJE2faXw
I do not plan a kit or selling like david forbes do.
First of all, it is initially his design and software. Second, I do not have the will and time to go through all the regulations EU/Germany has for selling such electronics.
I could share the PCB if I order the next batch, but it is not finished, yet.
I plan to add ESP32 for NTP and web config.

Hi
Is that image of the face - showing the image offset twice in the X direction only - what you see with your eyes or is it a camera artefact?
If it is real, what happens when you rotate the tube?
It is interesting that it seems to occur in the X direction only.
If you feed the X and Y data from the DACs into a scope in XY mode
do you see a good image or this offset one.
Do you have any strong alternating magnetic fields near by? example soldering iron base station...

Hi Max
To me its not a PSU problem as it is one one axis only. The deflection amplifiers are identical and swapping their X and Y inputs shows they are not the problem.
It seems to me that the problem is back in the DACs or the code, that the X DAC (originally) is drawing the image in one position and then drawing it displaced slightly in another, perhaps one refresh later.
If you try your scope in XY mode, then I find the images are not very good on digital scopes or at least the cheap ones I have access to :^( I have an old analogue CRT based scope for when the (cheap) digital one struggles.

Hi
I should have asked, I had assumed you had modded the code.
It is a surprise that the transformer affected only the X axis.
With the astigmatism set midway and minimal brightness, does the focus pot produce the best focus at one end, or at some point inside the travel range?
If you connect the 4 deflection plates to the final acceleration anode, can you focus a really good spot?

It is an odd problem. I need to think a bit more. Unfortunately I don't know David's software so I can't help with the draw factors...

Hi Max,
first of all, congrats to be that far with your project.
I think you are very close to success.
Could you please measure your voltage between the NEG1200V and GRID.
It should be, for testing, about 0V. In Blanking mode it should be about -40V.
In David's schematic it is R11.
Measurement NEG1200V and GRID, so measure across R11.
If you see a negative voltage, try to disable blanking with BLANK high.
Or, just disconnect the GRID connection from the tube and connect it with a 20k resistor to NEG1200V.
You should see something like the picture attached.
In my setup, I see your described behaviour, if I have GRID floating (not connected) or constant at negative 40V.
I mean the over-blurred image.

Careful.
https://www.ebay.com/itm/196312588768
I asked…
Have you done any testing? Example with a plasma ball? Visible cracks? You willing to accept returns if they don’t work if opened and tested on video?
His response was:
Can you please Read? Not tested! UNTESTED! AS IS for display ONLY and Absolutely no return. For parts or not working.
I was hoping he would at least check for cracks, but instead he added text to his auction saying…
Final Sale and NO Returns. Tubes are for display ONLY in Untested condition.
