6JS6 vs. 6LR6 vs. 6LX6 tubes

[Chad Hauris]

Thanks for your comments, I do have the sams...I have a feeling something else is not right as the vertical still doesn't fill the screen even with a new vertical output tube and height all the way up. It may be those bad orange drops! When I turn the effeciency coil I don't get very much variation in the HO current,just goes between 0.20 and 0.21 amps with the 6JS6c.

I have had several cases of HO tube destruction caused by no drive signal...hopefully the old 6LR6 didn't suffer this fate. It never seemed to look abnormally hot though.

I have a feeling I maybe just better do a re-cap of all those old orange drops like you said. On anything that has paper caps I automatically replace all of them just so I'm not chasing weird problems.
