Re: PERMANENT THREAD: Ebay& other internet FINDS of interest- read all the OP please
it's likely dead. orange, yellows and greens have a shorter life than he reds. if it IS out of alignment, i think there is little that can be done. They is no alignment that may be done on most of those tubes, since the mirrors are epoxied in.
^ ^^ you are very likely correct- but DAMN its an orange HeNe!!
I could still add it to my sig- few here have one- maybe less than 2 or three..
otherwise
we will never=( most likely) know if the 'winner' was a loser or not.
Maybe my string of bad luck has ended. And I can always put it =back up o Ebay for the next who wants to try.
My plan is to the send link to Sam- this is what ( these days) IMO, he lives for-
I can trust Sam to give the best advice and even fix for me--
There is a faint glow- so I have hopes-- a new one(NOS) from MI was when he had them ~$500- so if the final price is right _ I cannot just walk--
it will complete my HeNe collection.
:shhh::beer:

So you need to find out if something you are wanting is still there.
