Discharging a VT100 CRT

[Julian Wolfe]

Are these two parts something I can buy at RS?  I don't want to have to
drive 20 miles to the nearest real component store if possible.

That is true but I gave him the spec for the diode that was there.
As is the 4006 is a 600V device.

Hey around here anytime I need a 1A diode it's a 1N4007 as I buy 
them 100 at a time cheap.  They make good varactors an passable 
HF low VHF PIN diodes.
