A method of mounting a signal outputting electrode for outputting an
electric signal generated in an envelope of a cathode ray tube to the
outside without being adversely influenced by a getter. A signal
outputting electrode is mounted in an area which is not covered with an
internal conductive film in a state where the periphery of the electrode
is apart from an inner wall of a funnel via an intermediate member. When a
getter is introduced into the tube in the state where the signal
outputting electrode is mounted, the getter is prevented from reaching the
intermediate member. It therefore prevents conduction between the signal
outputting electrode and the inner conductive film.
