This is a list of tvs that have picture tubes suitable for use in
arcade monitors. Need a tube? Search on Craigslist or hit the local
thrift shops with a copy of this list. This is by no means an end-all
list, there's no way I can list EVERY tv with a useable tube, but
basically the ones that I've scavenged from thrift shops, craigslist,
and curb finds.
Note that where you see mention of a "CR" Code, like CR-23 or CR-25,
this is a reference for the pinout of the tube. It refers to the socket
that is used for a B&K Precision tube rejuvenator, and is a good way
to indicate socket compatibility. For example, a tube with a CR-23
socket will have the same pinout as any other tube with a CR-23 socket. A
tube that is a CR-25 though will not be compatible with a CR-23 tube.
Clear as mud?
Here's a link to the B&K Precision setup guide for their tube
rejuvenators. Again, we use this as a pinout reference...if your donor
TV's tube uses the same socket (CR-??) as the tube your replacing, then
they're pin compatible: http://www.vidiotarcade.com/tech/100-CRT.pdf
Ladies/Gents - We need to find some of the rare/hard to find
tubes out there! Even if you find oddball sizes, or even b&w tubes,
please by all means just send them to me and I'll post them. Nintendo
Cocktails take 14" tubes, Red-tent owners are in need of 18" tubes, and
some games use a 19" or 23" b&w tube - send those as well!!
These TVS have been found to have useable tubes in them....

Arcade Monitor Reference
Here's a list of readings from Arcade monitors, to see if your tv
tube's existing yoke may be compatible with a chassis. Please take this
information with a grain of salt and verify the readings before trying
it.These were compiled from forum posts, other sites, and my own
experiences.
