Hi,

I have been backing away from vacuum tubes for some number of years (not 
abandoning them). I don't expect to need any of those. But I am glad to 
hear those will NOT go into a dumpster somewhere. Some day we will run 
out of vacuum tubes.

Is it funny that we are already out of dual-gate mosfets but not vacuum 
tubes? Oh. Right. There are SMD dual-gate mosfets (for now). Better get 
a tablespoonful of those while they last <wink>.

73,

Bill  KU8H

Not much is known about what they are.  Assume they are used, loose (not in boxes) and untested. They also may have picked through and these are what's left.  I know nothing more so don’t ask.
