OK, so among a large collection of tubes i just bought was this one. The bottle size is the same as 6F6G, it has the same connections, but the plate structures are much bigger. It test very much like a 6L6G on my Avo tester, but all the 6L6G's I have seen are in a bigger bottle. The distance between the mica's is about 1.5" (38mm).
Test figures: Vp=Vs=250v, Vg=-16.5v, Ip=46mA, gm=4.2mA/v
Anybody know what it is?

Sorry for the awful pics that my old camera takes this close.

Thanks in advance, Gary
 
Trying again with the pics :mad:
