E182CC substitution ?

Yes, the 7119 is the alternate part number. Although often mentioned as a 5687 substitute, the 7119/E182CC is really quite different (as is the 7044). If has a higher mu and higher gm, and the plate structure is significantly larger. Both it and the 5687 make nice audio tubes, by the way.
