I decided to sell off my 4-1000A "collection" about 4 years ago. Of the
33 tubes I had only 2 were thrown away. About 5, if I recollect, took
many hours of very red plates but they all recovered and were tested on
10M at 5200V.
Several had 1960's era date codes, and numerous brands.
Off to work, be back in about 12 hours.
