[Amps] Powering NOS 8874's ?

[gudguyham at aol.com]

You can probably just go for it with that tube, but to be on the safe side plug the tube into the amp and leave the anode B+ connector off.  Let it run 24 hours and then make B+ connection.

I know this sort of question has been asked before, but I'll ask again in
case there are new insights.

I have acquired a NOS 8874 with a date code of 0208 (8th week of 2002 ?).
Never even been plugged into a socket.

Best way to power it up ?
