     Seems to be my turn to be picked apart but before you start you should
look at the tubes from DXE. On the older tubes, the metal ring under the
cooling find is indented. In the newer tubes from DXE. the metal ring under
the cooling find is expanded.
     Also, everyone knows there was never a 4CX800. Why don't we stipulate
that from this point forward?
