Perhaps a truely stupid question, which socket does a 5Y3 use?
Does it have just the four connections....I'm reading that it uses an octal socket as say a 6SL7 ....with no pins on the other four?
Does it use the four pin that the 300b, 2A3 uses? What other tubes fit the same socket........I've searched & searched........I can't find any reference for it!

Hi Richard,
Franks has lots of data sheets that show the information you were looking for.. Yes it is an octal type, and typically only 5 of the 8 pins are installed, with only 4 being in actual use. Same pin out as 5AR4..
