The one item in your list that no longer has any use!

I've got one of those, but not Heathkit, and PAL not NTSC


Closed Circuit TV is still mostly analog.


But the monitors these days are LCD and not CRT.


The new ones likely are but the vast, already installed, base is not.

The days of static convergence, dynamic convergence, pin cushion, etc
are gone.


Essentially irrelevant; when checking out such a system about the only
thing that matters is a known, stable video of something.

Apparently you have never worked on a CCTV system; a known, stable, and
portable source of video is a handy thing to have when troubleshooting.
