I recall these in Military Aircraft of the 50's --- I believe ARC-27 -- a
UHF Transceiver by Collins Radio
The ARC-1 Transceiver used a smaller rounded version 832B -- we called them
door knob tubes -- see google
So would make a VHF/UHF power output stage maybe 10 watts or so
They were the final in the TX of the AN/ARC-3, too. I never got
mine lit up, as I went into the USAF not long after I got mine --
surplused (or something) from the Civil Air Patrol, way back in
1964.

them. -- Graham Reed, in a.s.r.
