The GS23b is a coaxial base tube and as it is a vhf/uhf tube which is probably only ever used in cavity amplifiers, there are no sockets readily available. My guess is that is why they are so cheap.

He certainly makes sockets for any tube. I already got his quotation for other tetrodes like TH347. Sockets are not really necessary it is just easier to swap tubes. On my 2m amp with YL1056 the scre

As a comparison of surplus, the 4cx1500B was used in many ship and shore power amplifiers. The price for a NIB surplus 4cx1500B is substantually lower than the 3cx1500A7's and other EIMAC tubes. ____
