I am looking for a 50's version of the WE396A (D getter).  Possible trades for a used GE 5751 Blackplate or quad of EL84 Amperex/Phillips D Getters (pulls from a hammond organ).

Thanks,
Ed

Ed,

When I get back into town (I'm in Chicago right now) let me check that date code on the spare I've got. I'd be interested in that quad of EL84's. Do they test OK?

Hi Scott, I don't have any way to measure them but the pic below shows what they were reading when I received them.  I used them for a week or two in my 102B before changing them out.   I cleaned the pins and got rid of most of the dust trying not to loose any of the labeling on the tubes.  Here's the pic:



There are a few other pics in my gallery here:  http://www.audiocircle.com/index.php?action=gallery;area=browse;album=1372

Ed,

Just got back and checked the date code. Looks like its 1966 with the square getter   :sad:
