Description |
Duotriode, low-distortion high-µ Class B type, low-heater-current, T9 bulb on octal base; heater 6.3V @ 600 mA, µ 65, 3.3 W (RCA, W). Dev. for government use; "particularly used for underwater sound" (sonar?}. Announced by RCA 1942; sales limited to existing inventory 1971. [Information by L. Sibley]
Since this tube is operated without negative bias, it requires a high-µ characteristic to keep the plate current low. This is achieved by using two separate control grids connected in parallel inside the bulb.
