You're right Glen, fat fingers and failure to proof read.

Use the 6939 tubes if you want to convert the Valiant to run about 40-watts!
That tube is a dual tetrode designed for low power UHF operation!
Methinks he means the 6293 which is a pulse rated 6146 with a peak rating of
1000-watts input. Those make for excellent replacements for the 6146 and
6146A/8298.
Be careful if you get the 6146B/8298A or 6146W tubes. Those are harder to
neutralize than the original 6146, 6146A/8298, and 6293 tubes.
