Solder headers on the two contacts labeled TV and any +5V and GND. Attach the Pi NoIR camera using flex cable and power it up.

$ sudo raspi-config

Interfacing Options -> Camera -> Enable

Boot Options -> Desktop / CLI -> Console Autologin

$ sudo vi /boot/config.txt

add the following lines

framebuffer_width=320
framebuffer_height=240
sdtv_mode=0
sdtv_disable_colourburst=1

 $ shutdown -h now

Power off, crimp Dupont connectors onto wires and plug into appropriate headers. Unplug HDMI.

Power on and the CRT glows.

No Dmesg output From Linux. Time to troubleshoot.
