Steve -

Two things!

1.  The 6JB6 is NOVAR base, and there is no socket on the TV-7 to accept it.  Best solution is the 
set of adapters from Daniel Nelson (TV-7 Repair guy) <djn at ieee.org>.  The set consists of two socket 
adapters NOVAR to OCTAL and Compactron to OCTAL.   It also includes test data (two pages) for just 
about any sweep tube with TV-7 settings.

2.  The 6HS6 settings are:  6.3V - ET15627 - 11 - D - 3 - Min=28.
