Was wondering if anyone knew if the 5100's crt  can be used to replace the one on the 2000?
Are they pin compatible ? Is a modification  needed?
I don't have a 5100 to compare .I notice on fleabay, 5100's are selling at low prices for parts with  crt   still good.Was thinking of picking one up .Mainly for the crt to keep the 2000 alive.

The CRT from a 5100DS should work in a newer style (grey case) Tracker 2000. The CRT is a Toshiba P31. The same tube was used in the grey case Tracker 1000 as well.
Thanks.

Hi Robin,
We have some CRTs but they are somewhat expensive. We are holding to some for ProTrack support so I cannot vouch for availability.

Thanks.
