[Kenwood] TS-520/TS-520S Neutralization and 6146 observation

[Mike Clarson]

Bill: Using a pair of 8552s in my TS-830S (modifing fills for 12V)  and they
work great. No problem making full power and tuning is quite stable and
smooth. 

However, examining my collection, I found an early 60's 6146B, and the
desigh of the plate is remarkabily similar to the 6146A, while an early 70s
one was clearly different. No claims--just an observation. --Mike, WV2ZOW

Let me toss another player in here and see how bad I get yelled at..

What about the 8552? This appears to have similar characteristics to the
6146B except it has a 12v filament. Anyone have any experience with
trying to use these instead of the 6146B (putting 12V to the filament of
course)..?
