Hi,

For the newbie question of the day...

Do I run any risk of damage if I run an NEC PG without the neck boards installed (all cabling hanging, not shorted)?

This model has a passive neck board (no video amp on neck board).

Purpose - testing unknown deflection board without risking burnt tubes in case the deflection scan collapse circuit is not functioning for some reason. I don't really feel good about risking "minty" tubes.

Thanks in advance!

Nope, no problem at all.

The other way is to unplug the HV leads at the splitter. But stay away from the semi-exposed HV pins.
