anyone in the Tuscaloosa/Birmingham AL area looking for a decent quality CRT by any chance? Goodwill won't take CRTs and it's a shame to let them go to the dumpster since no one makes them anymore

Might as well ask here before going to craigslist, but I don't think we've seen a single other person on here from around here in the first place so.... not really expecting any answers

if you *are* interested, it's a security monitor that was never on the consumer market so there isn't a ton of information out there for it, but it's a large screen (about 26"? can't measure now so that's an estimate), and has two S-video inputs as well as two RF inputs (BNC connector as common in security systems, instead of the F connector common for TVs). Mono speaker. Good for video games from the 90s to mid-00s; S-video is the best quality you'll get out of an unmodded SNES for example
