It's always been my understanding that a 6L6Gx meant it was a 6L6 in a 
glass tube.

But, since I wasn't sure, I went looking, and did a little investigation.

You can check out the differences for yourself at

Then again, as someone else said, it seems much hoopla over the 
differences in 6L6's and 6V6's, and yet Zero comments on a Huff-n-Puff 
"very stable" VFO project.
