Thanks for the info, yoke works just fine. Doesn't make much difference with the convergence though. I borrowed the yoke from Chad at the Arcade cup and we were discussing the convergence problem earlier today when he asked was it an Amp tube, I told him I'm not 100% sure but 2 KLOV'r said they were about 99% sure it was. Quick background, the tube that came with game was at some point replaced or repaired, there aren't any labels except a warranty sticker from Academy Color Tube for 1 year. There is the raised glass lettering 25V100 and very faint white markings in upper left rear of tube that reads AWX00. Chad raised the thought that maybe I don't have an actual amp tube and if the yoke isn't proper for the tube I have convergence will never be attained properly. So I thought I'd ask the experts here to take a look at some pix of the tube perhaps we can figure out if it is or isn't an Amp. You can find the pix here.

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks again,

  If the picture isn't upside-down or mirrored the yoke is wired right. The wire colors don't really matter, it's just how the batch was made.

    I checked the ohms on the plug, pins 1&2, 3&5 they read the same on both yokes, if I check the colors I get the exact opposite, red/blue .6, yel&brn 1.3 ohms on orig yoke, red/blu 1.3 and yel/brn .6 ohms on borrowed yoke. So based on this I should be ok?
    Thanks,
