 Hello Malcolm and all other Tubers,

My uncle, a radio engineer/manager, told me while I was inquiring on
obtaining tubes that about three years ago they rebuilt several older
transmiters and he had about 10-15 833's sitting around that have
sometime in the past year or so been DISPOSED of or otherwise
disapeared!

SO MUCH for recycling!
