Hi,

I have a few more tubes to part company here.

1G3GT  2
3AT2   2
1J3    1

These are high voltage, low current rectifiers typically used in
television high voltage power supplies. The 3AT2's are compactrons and
the others are octals. I read somewhere these can function as vacuum
variable caps (in the manner of a varicap diode) with high voltage. I am
not going to be building an amp that needs any kind of cap with that
kind of voltage ratings (can you spell QRP?). I have two or three that
have the labels worn off and I'll toss them in, too.

These are available for the shipping costs... mostly just the postage
and a few cents for some tape, bubbles, and cardboard now and then. I am
not asking for any money for the tubes nor for the labor of packing and
carrying to the post office. I'll do that for the pleasure of fondling
them one more time on their way out. When responding please let me know
which tubes you want and verify that your address is good on qrz.com or
not.

More tubes coming.

73,

Bill  KU8H
