[Amps] Source for economical HV diodes?

[Radio WC6W]

Hi Dave,
   I have some diodes that should fit your requirements.

   They are NOS house numbered parts (about 1/4" square by 2" long)
probably rated at least 30 KV PIV (and perhaps 50 mA) as they exhibit a
28V forward drop @ 10 mA.  Asking $5 ea.

73 & Good morning,
   Marv  WC6W  310 649 3111
