what exactly are "12 volt 6146B's" ?
6146B have 6.3V heater. What tube are you using exactly?

There were several variants with different heater voltages. I once
bought a bunch of them cheaply at a hamfest. If you were building
your own rig and could set the heater voltage, they were well worth
the price.

In a commerical radio, e.g. the 820, they were of absolutely no
use.
