it's a early telefunken ecc81.the bottom is too narrow,missing a B,the code should be YKB ⊥6,so it's a telefunken ecc81 made in AUG,1953.

These Telefunken marked with philips codes are pretty rare, only about half dozen times I've seen these in about 20 years of tube collecting!

I mean say Citron itself. Its a unfounded hint??

Never heard about Citron and seems there is no info about this brand, do you have any of these Citron tubes so you can post a pic?

FullRangeMan · « **Reply #865 on:** 20 Apr 2014, 10:49 pm »

Excuse my fault the pronounce is citron, but the spelling is Cetron.
Its a know late brand of tubes, supposed to be made in USA.

Oh Cetron! yes I know that brand, but I think Cetron didn't manufacture any ecc8x tubes...at least I never heard or read about

I think Cary audio was the first company using Cetron 300B in their amplifiers.

THis small tube had a paper label. One must remove the paper label before use the tube to avoid over heating??

Hi FULLRANGEMAN.
I might be wrong
(Won't be the first time - neither the last time)
but look to me like thick textured paint, not paper ? ? ?

Hi, FULLRANGEMAN, I don't think it is easy to remove the label once it been applied on the glass and for visual appearance no one will remove it
