[Amps] MACHLETT tubes?

[Radio WC6W]

Hi Alex,
   Machlett was an old American manufacturer of some tubes, X-Ray equipment and other RF thingys.  

   I believe that they were acquired long ago by some other company.

   I've don't recall seeing a RF tube from them other than small planar RF triodes ie: the 2C39 family.

   Likely what's being offered is of Chinese origin with either a licensed, or pirated, moniker.

73 & Good morning,
