The tube pictured in the cited auction (280678721095) has "6X6" on it, but it
is Cyrillic! The Cyrillic "X" is the closest equivalent to our "H", so the
item is in fact a 6H6, most likely of Russian manufacture.

Now, just what it is doing in Canada and why the price including shipping is
so high is another issue!
