If you love and respect Henry Radio, my advice is do Not under any
circumstances go there. However, if you are a curious guy, and you can't
locate a 2KD-5, the 1KD-5 provides similar filament voltage. With
either model one can easily read a newspaper from the light of the
filament. The good news is that if you ever want to convert a 2KD-5 to a
3CX1200Z7, it's perfect because you already have 6v for the filament.
cheers.
