[Milsurplus] WTB: Metal Tubes

[Al Klase]

Hi George,

I'm pretty sure I have a couple 6H6GT's in my heap.  I've also seen the 
shouldered "G" style as well.  Several manufactures went with glass 
octals.  The 1938 Zenith 9S232 (Walton's) is a good example.

My suspicion is that production was limited to the very early octal days, and not many actually ended up in circulation.  Wonder if Sibley says anything about the subject?
