[R-390] 26Z5 tubes

[Barry Hauser]

I don't think you'll have to be concerned for long -- the $35 26Z5W's will
probably soon sell out, along with  $45 NOS 1L6's for the Zenith T/O's
(wherever they are).

Either somebody better take up glass blowing, or break out the silicon
diodes, like Les says. Unless you can find some used 26Z5W's - with some
tread left on 'em.  I suppose they would only cost around $10-15?

How about a 25Z6?  25Z5?  Double or nothin'?
