Cool thanks for the tip, I figured it wouldn't be good to run it due to the stress factor as well. Theres this guy here in Sacramento called Mr.Tubehead, he has all these tubes usually handy. Its good to see people in the tube business still! He usually repairs guitar amps but he wants me to help him with his 1948 RCA TV, so in turn he will give me a full set of NOS tubes for my 16..
