Largest vacuum tube ever made

[6GH8cowboy]

A ham radio buddy of mine had some odd stuff stolen out of his garage, including a large transmitter tube from an old radio station. Being in a less-than ideal part of town one of the kids asked what happened . He told the kid that someone stole some old parts and that they were "radio active" and that he felt bad for the thief "cause in a week or so they'll be dead" The stuff was on his lawn the next morning!
