Scott,
        I have a pair of regular 866A's you're welcome to. They're not the 
AX variety as manufactured by GE, but they should do the job just the same. 
Regarding 572B's, they're pretty hard to come by used since they were 
designed specifically as a "Amateur Radio" type of tube, not used in 
commercial applications. RF Parts in Ca. sells their Chinese made "Taylor" 
572B's for around $50 or so each. I think your best bet would be to contact 
them if you don't get any responses. You could also try QRZ.com in their 
wanted column. Ditto with "Eham.net". You may just get lucky and find 
someone who has a used pair to sell you at a reasonable price.

Best Regards,
                    Joe Cro N3IBX
