Your Television. You - Your Tube -Television (From Cathode Ray Tube)
TV tubes start dying from the day they're first made. It's generally a very slow process and if you watch the TV on a regular basis, you'll most likely not notice the changes from day to day. The other interesting fact is that usually TV tubes will out last the lifetime of the set as they generally develop other failures, requiring repair. However, that's not to say that a TV tube can't go bad. Unless you're a trained television technician, it's difficult to tell exactly what's going on with a tube without looking at it. The tube may be fine, but the customer has gotten the controls set improperly, the tube may have become `gassy' or just showing age wear, or some other internal problem in the TV is making the tube look bad.
The only tv that can come close to being made in the USA is Predicta made by Telstar and for now it is made with a CRT Picture Tube.
Usually less than $100
TV was not made until the late 40's and sold to the public in the early 50's.. They were metal, glass, a bit of plastic, wires, and had a picture tube. This was well before transistors, so people would take the tubes out of the back of the TV, test them, and replace the burned out tube.

That is a great question, since it is hard to find tube televisions nowadays. You can get your grandmother a tube television at www.walmart.com for $189.96.
it sounds cool!Tube means TV. Sort of "Your TV"
A replacement tube (if it is available) is likely going to cost almost as much as the whole television. If you need a new tube, it's time to ditch the tube TV and get a flat screen.
