I purchased a lot of compactron tubes from an eBay seller which included a number of Raytheon 16C-B28s and 1 Westinghouse 16CB28.
All appear to be NOS.
These are 12-pin tubes with anode top cap, and obviously designed for use as TV horizontal outputs.
I cannot find any tube data for these on any of the regular web sites -- anyone have a datasheet or further information on these?
Thanks,
Charles

I found this: https://radiomann.sakura.ne.jp/HomePageVT/TV_Hor2JP.html#16CB28
There's lots of reference to it being the same as a 6JZ6, but with a 16v heater. Might just us the same pinout. (fingers crossed)

Ahh, OK. So same or similar to 6JZ6, 6GY5, 21HB5, 21JV6. All good 18 Watt tubes.
21HB5 and 21JV6 have NO plate cap, and 21/33JV6 go for $3 at Vacuumtubes.net. There is also a 16KA6 (same specs) with a plate cap, $4.
21HB5 was on the old $1 list, but $6 now.
The tube above the 16C-B28 on that radioman.sakura page, 12H-B25, I see listed for $7, and the 17H-B25 version listed for $4 at Vacuumtubes.net. These are PL36 type tubes according to the info there. I used to see these on the $1 list, but didn't know what they were.
