They are currently available....Alpha is selling off what few they had 
at a fairly reasonable price... Oops...They had them two weeks ago, but 
they are no longer listed.   Those were the last ones I knew of.

As I said, they had a pretty good price...<:-)) Which is fine if you get 
a couple of spares which is always a good idea when building an amp that 
uses tubes that are orphans.
