Hey, I noticed a new descriptor here. The freshness of the Eimac Red paint.
Next thing you know, people will be spraying new paint on their tubes, and
applying like new Eimac decals.

What about the smell of a new tube, is that important? Personally I love
that odor of baking in a new aircooled tube. Water cooled tubes don't cut
it for this aroma.

Then theres that smell of a new Heathkit being fired up the first time.
Remember that?
