[Johnson] 6146W and 6AU6WC

[Glen Zook]

Any 6146W made after 1964 (and even some in that time
frame) is the same as a 6146B and most Valiants and
Rangers are not very happy with the 6146B!  There are
neutralization problems among others.  See either of
the websites that are listed at the end of this
message for the article on the 6146 family of tubes
that was published in Electric Radio a couple of years
ago and in the Collins Collectors' Association
newsletter more recently.

The 6AU6W shouldn't cause any problems when replacing
a "normal" 6AU6.

Can anyone tell me if the 6146W is interchangable with
the 6146 in the Ranger and Valiant? Also- is the
6AU6WC (also called 6136) interchangable with the 6AU6
in the same rigs?
