Re: Kudos to Digi Key and Hammond Mfg.
Yessir!? Hammond Mfg. and DigiKey are great resources. I've ordered a couple of their Peter Dahl transformers, and they make a first-rate product! Pricing was fair enough, and they shipped quickly.

Re: Identifying some rare tubes...
WB4VVI(SK) always told me when building/designing a transmitter or amp to use a tube that was pretty flat emission wise. No sense in screwing up a good tube on a miss-wired endeavor and/or a parasitic

Re: Identifying some rare tubes...
Strange. On the link you sent on one photo it shows the 6T51 as a glass tube but on another photo it shows it as an external anode. Even on evilbay they show a 6T51 as an external anode as a FU-605.
