Anyone know where I can get a complete spec sheet for the Eimac 15E?
It's a physically small, glass triode, used (I'm told) as an output tube in aircraft radar. Evidently, a long time age.
All connections are pins. Two out the bottom are filament, one out the top is the grid, and the plate comes out the side. Certainly a different configuration.
I have some specs. The max plate voltage is 2000 volts. The filament voltage is 5.6 volts, which I suspect, since, if it's a radar tube, designed for pulse-service, Eimac often used a higher-than-normal voltage for that use.
Anyway, I've got an urge to build something and that tube is so (dare I say) cute that I'd like to build a semi-QRP CW rig around it.
