No, it's a Pentode no longer made. I used the large difference between 
what the tested and guaranteed versions sell for and one that is 
untested. Unfortunately I worded it poorly.   You can purchase good 
pulls for a $100 or so but no guarantee.  The 8295A brings some pretty 
good prices on e-bay, but you never know for sure what you are getting.

There's a site that lists the high, low, and average prices that ham 
gear (and tubes IIRC) has been going for on e-bay.  Unfortunately I 
don't remember the URL.
