Don't see many of those on ebay.

Isn't that the one that used subminiature tubes? The one I'm thinking of
was pretty fancy, I never saw one up close, but I thought it did. And while
getting tubes doesn't seem to be a problem, subminiatures might be given
they never saw the same useage even in the old days.
