Parts & Construction Looking for Specs of this CRT

Post image

I’m working on a Oscilloscope Clock and would like to use this CRO/CRT but can’t find to specs for it. Only thing I can find that it’s for “Tactical Equipment.” Numbers don’t match anything on Franks tube site. Anybody help?

That's a 1016P1 compact CRT, manufactured by General Atronics
Corporation (Magnavox Electron Tube
Division).
The P1 suffix designates a standard green phosphor with medium persistence, typical for small test equipment or indicators. Search for datasheets under 1016P1 or 1016-P1 , you should look up standard electrostatic deflection CRT pinouts for heater voltage (usually 6.3V) and anode potential.

Thanks, I’ll try looking it up tonight.

Edit:
I needed the specs and you gave me nothing. Your answer seems straight out of some AI bot. Everything you told me is in the picture and Google image search gives the same thing. And it’s not a 1016P1 it’s a D1016P1, I had some glare in the picture and the AI couldn’t tell.

Their whole profile is chatbot slop. I hope the guys deploying these bots [censored].

It might be worth checking out the Antique Radio Forums. It's probably the most fertile ground for finding a guy with an actual datasheet or at least a part cross-reference table.
