I'd say that they are all potentially serviceable / repairable ![:D]( "Very Happy")
Definitely don't throw any away as CRTs are now a finite resource.
I'm personally yet to encounter a CUB monitor with a dead LOPT, even the biggest tripler issue is the focus potentiometer rather than the tripler itself.
Certainly things like "rainbow" screen, vertical collapse and poor focus are all easily fixed.
My main enemy is time but I'd be happy to try and help you with these. I'm in the south so there's also a distance issue but at least with the CUBs you could post me the boards and I'd be able to fix and test without needing the tube.
Speaking of which I probably do have a spare tube for a 1431.
I've got a stack of CUBs in my "queue" which I acquired for TNMOC but they're now in the lucky position of having sufficient, so in due course I'll restore them and offer to other museums and enthusiasts.
All the best
