Do you have a good tube source, Frank?


Depends on what kind of tube you are looking for. The station gets their
big tubes directly from the manufacturer. For standard consumer tubes, I
don't like buying them mail-order because they cost too much, and many
times are used (low emission) and the pins are just buffed up to make
them look new. I highly recommend getting a tube tester and start
hoarding them from wherever you can find them, usually at garage sales
and thrift shops. A couple months ago I went to a yard sale and got an
old reel-2-reel that they just gave away because it was old and ugly.
Inside were a half-dozen Telefunken 12AX7s and several other goodies. The
tubes are out there, you just have to know how they are packaged.

Good advice. Lucky for me I have two friends who do just that, but
you never know when you'll need to find another supply.

These guys are a real trip. If you ever need something, let me know
and I'll see.


How about a 100W ultra-linear output transformer (Acrosound TO-350 or
equivalent)?

No, it's a transformer, but it's for a tube amplifier.

Right-o! If I can't find one I'll have to wind one myself, a project which I
don't think I will enjoy too much.

Ok, I hope the crazy ******* has one or two of them. It may take him
a little while to find it, his organization/inventory skills leave
a little to be desired.

What's it worth to you? ( he's gonna ask before he looks)

They aren't too common, so I would be suprised if he had two. He probably
doesn't even have one, but it's worth asking.

It's worth whatever it's worth to him -- I can wind my own if it's too high. I
might be willing to trade if he's looking for something specific himself (and I
happen to have it).

Perhaps, but he's a pack-rat.

Ok then. He's working on some stuff for me, and I'll see him Friday
evening. I'll ask.

What's funny is Frank's early week sobriety. Friday he claimed he didn't
care about hammie radio at all and had no interest in such. Monday
morning finds him desperately selecting personal arguments concerning
hammie laws, and Tuesday finds him perusing used gear ads for his
non-interests.


Funnier than that is ****hed's overweening lust for dripping cocks to suck.
