[AMRadio] Tube bake in process.

[Jim Wilhite]

Run the filaments for a minimum of half hour before applying high 
voltage.  You don't mention what tube you are speaking about, but if 
it is an Eimac, go to their website and read their technical 
information.  http://www.cpii.com/eimac/index.html

The information is good no matter who made the tube(s).
