Told ya'! Thanks, Bill. I had a mental block....

Fortunately, my three TO knockoffs (RCA 3-BX-671 & 7-BX-10, Halli' TW-1000)
all have good(?) 1L6's. The adaptor won't fit in any of them. I think I'll
post a 'want' for a 1R5 for everyday use (he http://hurtle.com/tubes/ )
and save the 1L6's for SW listening only.

There are some workarounds for the missing 1L6. A guy over on
rec.antiques.radio+phono makes an adaptor to use the older loctal tube,

there's a sub for the 1L6 if you just want it to make some
sounds...although
the sub (can't remember the #, someone will chime in with it) doesn't
have
very good h.f. performance.

1R5.
