The closer you look, the more you see. Don't look too closely, though, because then things get all quarky, and you discover its all only your own reflection, peering back at youChappy wrote:Timberwolf
I checked my tubes again, and you are right about the dullness of the RCA tubes. The getter rings look like they are attached differently also. The tabs which extend through the mica have rounded corners on the Sylvania tube. The RCA tubes seem to have a mix of rounded and squared of corners, but the rounded corners are more subtle. Finally the ribbing on the sides of the plates are a bit different. The Sylvania tube`s cross members overlap the vertical members whereas they don`t on the RCA tube. I stand corrected on my previous post. The plates look very similar in physical construction but they are not identical. Thats what I get for examining tubes while drinking Vodka!
