It looks like you never actually use the implicit wait. This is how I would write script with an explicit wait.

def ct_content(url):
    browser = webdriver.PhantomJS()
    browser.get(url)
    wait = WebDriverWait(browser, 10)
    try:
        content = wait.until(EC.element_to_be_clicable(By.XPATH, '//a[starts-with(@href, "list.asp?Table=List")]'))
        browser.quit()
        return content.text
    except:
        browser.quit()
        return False

Also, the way to set implicit waits is:

browser.implicitly_wait(10) # seconds
