Hi David,

You mean graphite *plate*.  The grid structure is the same in each
tube, i believe.

Anyway, i can tell from the picture that 3 of those tubes are indeed 833Cs.

Hi Chip,

Nice find! ;^) I assume the 833 style tubes are
833As and not 833Cs? 833Cs have a graphite
grid and I have seen firsthand that they are much
more robust than the metal gridded 833As and
can take probably twice the power of an 833A
without so much as a dull glow of the grid.
