Speaking of 6146's.... I purchased a dozen of them in near unused
condition from a radio repair shop. How rare or coveted are these
tubes?

I can't find it right now, but somewhere I have an article from a ham
magazine that used TEN of them (actually 1625's), with their filaments
series'd across the 120-volt mains and their outputs paralleled on one
of the lower ham bands.

I, too, have been saving them and will find the round tuit someday.

I got 200 pulls, all tested good, for $0.25 each, so far I've used 12.
