[Boatanchors] 6GW8 Vacuum Tubes (2)

[manualman at juno.com]

Although the 6GW8 is the more common tube used in the HA-460 and HA-410,
Lafayette also used the 6BM8 tubes for V6 and V7 in the modulator/audio
output sections. They are not interchangeable. Tube socket wiring is
different. You would be wise to confirm that 6GW8's are used in your
HA-460.
