seti Posted March 26, 2017 Author Share Posted March 26, 2017 Two more actual NOS tubes from the 1920's... Just crazy. Cunningham's my fave because of the extra mica support. Actually made by RCA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schu Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 do you need to find a circuit to use for those tubes or are you just collecting? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tube fanatic Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 You may enjoy becoming a member of the Tube Collectors Association. The collective knowledge about tubes in that organization is without equal! http://www.tubecollectors.org/ Maynard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebes Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 This is my fave, the Acturus 126: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seti Posted March 28, 2017 Author Share Posted March 28, 2017 Got a few more on the way. Thebes I need some 45 blue Acturus tubes!!!! Got some nice 245 globes but that is about it. Tube Fanatic That is cool I haven't been there yet. It is bookmarked. Schu I have a schematic. I just need some 816's to go with it. Doing a preamp for my digital sources. I already have the new slagle autoformers and rod coleman regulator boards. I'm still collecting parts till I finish another project in the works. JimJimbo Thanks but honestly it is a instagram filter but it worked well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebes Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Then there's this badboy, the RCA 804 transmitting tube which is about 8 inches tall: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marvel Posted April 10, 2017 Share Posted April 10, 2017 My co-worker is from Russia, and today showed me tubes he could have got while still there. One of them is a gu-50, with a plate dissipation of 50 watts, but heater current only .707 amps. He said he could have walked out with boxes of all kinds of tubes. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GU-50 Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
