That's all well and good, but those had one of 4-5 common TV picture

matching connectors for a ******* CRT.

I just looked on E-bay - a number of crt boosters are available. One would have to compare pinouts/sockets (for location & form factor) to see if they match. In the event they didn't match, one could break apart the sockets to expose the crimped wires and then individually mate them to the pins on the crt (and the original socket as well).
It would save a little time as compared to rolling your own.

With most TVs it's easier to put an extra turn on the LOPTF
