[GreenKeys] 6005

[Bob Camp]

Hi

Last time I checked pretty much all of the 6V6 family of tubes are 
still in production in various parts of the world. In any case there 
are a lot of them out there.

Since the 6AQ5 will be with us for a long time there's no need to worry 
about running hot filaments for auto start operation on our proposed 
net.

	Thanks!
