[Amps] gu84b tube length and sockets

[Thomas Hix]

will Matney said

"There's two versions of the GU-84 tube, one slightly longer than the
other. The shorter version will not fit in the socket that has the built
in chimney (air system type). Tom has another socket, custom made that
should fit both"
=============================================================
I was not aware that there were two versions of the gu84b tube.......has 
anyone else run into this?
As to my custom made socket working for either length gu84b tube.....yes it 
will work just fine because it does not come with the chimney......this 
socket that I have custom made will also work for the gu78b tube as well.
Thanks to Will for bringing this to my attention.
