I don't want to be branded as a cynic (OK, OK, as any MORE of a cynic...), but let's just say that it's the job of the marketing department to encourage people to think that they need a product that actually they don't.  Or perhaps that they need to buy a product to solve a problem that's not actually there.  There's one born every day and good luck to 73CNC, I'm sure that many 11 metre 3-500Z amplifiers will be modified with their shiny new plate caps.

You'll also notice the crayon is going DIRECTLY onto the anode "pin"  the
tube on the right. And on the TOP of the "new fangled" plate cap on the
right.

Not a very fair test. I would like to see the test repeated with a GENUINE
HR-6 and the "new fangled" plate cap.
