Thank you very much for the pointer. As I understand it, Eimac doesn't make
this tube anymore, but Ampex is a good brand. Hopefully a Google search will
find out where to buy them.

John,
They are direct replacements but they aren't very good. K3FK had a QRO
amp with a pair of 'em a few years back and we had to resolder filament
pins on one or the other of the bottles several times. We dropped in a
set of Eimacs and the problem went away.
I've heard very good things about the Ampex variants with the carbon
anodes.

I am not sure if the Drake L4-B qualifies as a suitable topic for this

Are the Chinese 3-500ZGs a drop-in replacement for the Eimac 3-500Z in
the Drake L-4B?
