[Boatanchors] [Heathkit] Apache Transmitter - Modulator tube change

[john]

Hi Greg

http://www.tubedepot.com/el346ca7.html?gclid=CIHS5Kfak6QCFYXs7QodqRD-AA

as low as 22$ per pair.... cheaper than 6146!

Of course if you go with the blue glass and the heagloblular shaped carbon 
tetramethane getter, then it COULD be more.

Seriously, the good news about these guys is that they're made today and 
still cheap.
