REPLY:

The original post asked for a tube that will run at 3.8 kV.... the max spec for
the GS-35b is 3.0 kVDC. Don't be fooled by the "instantaneous value" spec of
6.0kV. In normal operation the instantaneous anode voltage will swing from aprox
zero to 2X the DC supply. If your DC supply is 3.8 kV, you will be exceeding the
instantaneous rating.
