Cockpit SW monitors all came with Ampliphone 25in tubes. Due to their
"ever too easy to fail" HV Transformers many operators used leftover
Wells Gardner monitors from Atari's other games. In fact Atari actually
sold a retrofit kit to keep the SW's alive. You can tell if you have an
official Atari kit by the mounting frame. If it has been made by using a
wobbly jig-saw then you know.
Good luck in finding the monitor.
