Thanks Peter!
    I have got a a died  TL922  as a junk,I only pay $100 for it.so I don't 
want pay for it too much.Althought the 3-500Z are made in China, but I call the 
factory, They ask me pay $500 for a matched pair!Mr.Richard L. Measures have 
mentioned in the list that  3-500Z can replace by 4-400(need some work),I have 
a pair  4-400C, but I just test them, they all died!in this weekend, I check my 
junk box, and find out some NOS Chinese FU-500Fs(same as 4X500A) and its 
socket, I just read its datasheets , I found the screen and grid  dissipation 
power not too small, so,I think maybe it can work in GG and cathode drive.It 
have same  volt and cureent of   filament as 3-500Z.  
  73! Hsu
