Does anyone know where I can obtain 3 of these tubes?
I have tried the web with no result.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Try:
1. Antique Electronics Supply in Phoenix, AZ
2. Triode Electronics in Chicago
3. ESRC in Florida

I can't even find a datasheet on the thing... but it looks like a
pentode designed for a battery-powered radio.... 1.5V filament, 90V plate.

I am thinking a 1LD5 or 1LC5 might be a reasonable sub, with a base
adaptor.

I think it might be one of them furrin tubes from before the
standardized letter/number numbering system.

It's a octal base, pentode RF amp. The suggested replacement is a 1N5GT.

Any idea who made it? My RCA data books cover the era when it must have been
made, but have no listing.
