Kip:

Does this have a red dot in the center? There was a special ^E5 used in
Japan called 6E5R but have never seen one here,.

Hello Group

I'm searching for any information you may have on a 6M-E5 'Magic Eye'
tube manufactured by 'Nippon Electric' and apparently only used in
Heathkit AJ-11S AM/FM Tuners circa 1962. Numerous Internet, phone
calls and e-mails have come up empty.

One of the very few Internet articles I did come across indicated that
the 6M-E5 'Eye Tube' was used in the AJ-11S for economy rather than
using then expensive meters. These tuners used two of these tubes, one
for AM and one for FM.

I have available a 37K scan of our sole survivor.

Any info or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Kip
