GEData: MediumMedium quality — at least 60% of universal parameters and pins are present, but some key data is missing. Verify specific values against datasheets before critical use.
RCA interchange lists 6080 as similar — both designed for regulator service but 6080 is a medium-mu power dual triode with much higher current capability and Octal base
