Many thanks to all for the replies. Now I know as much or more than I
ever wanted to know about the 0A2 HI,HI!
Seriously though, I appreciate the wealth of information available on
this reflector.

Subject: [Collins] tube type 0A2

Can anyone tell me what the difference is between the 0A2 and 0A2WA?
All the tube manuals I have just say "INDUSTRIAL TYPE" for the WA and
0A2, refering to the 0A2 for characteristics.(0A2 is not even listed
in RC22)  Mr. Sibley says WA is rated at 148V vice 150V for 0A2.
Obviously the WA is built different but in what respect? I have always
substituted the two.
