Total acceleration voltage on the CRT is 10 kV. The CRT power supply uses five [[5642]] HV tube diodes.
The standard CRT for the 543 is the [[T65]] with P2 [[phosphor]], part number 154-175.

The vertical amplifier has a [[6DJ8]] cathode follower stage followed by
two transistor/tube cascode stages with a 186 Ω [[delay line]] in-between.
The standard CRT for the 543B is part number [[154-0478-00]],
also known as the [[T5470]]-31-2.
There is a rackmount version, Type RM543B.
