  • Notes
  • Pre WW2 it was common in UK to exclude rectifier and mag.Eye from the valve count. The had been added separately, ergo here 2+R in the old style (see J.Hill, RadioRadio). On the continent and in USA the total number was used.
    In RMorg we note all valves, but we do not count stabilisers and ballasts. Ergo 3 as seen above.
