Data: 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.
Same Loctal pinout (8V) and remote-cutoff pentode but higher heater current (0.3A vs 0.15A) and different operating characteristics — Raytheon lists as substitute
