[Milsurplus] Advice: LS-50 German Tube - correction

[wf2u at starband.net]

Correction to my previous message - after looking in some notes and not
the top of my head...

The LS-50 is not a GDR tube, it's a WW2 German tube. The GU-50 is a
Russian copy with similar characteristics but somewhat different physical
dimensions, although they look similar. The difference is in the diameter
and the pin dimensions.

Some restorers use the GU-50 to substitute for the LS-50 by reworking the
socket, I found an article how to do it.
