Description

Sylvania 5693 metal tube with red paint. These are fairly common tubes, but I have not seen many with the very nice yellow paint graphics, as found on this tube. The filament is good and reads about 6 Ohms. The connection of the leads to the pins on the tubes affects the reading due to the oxidation on the pins, so the reading on the multimeter varies as the test clips are moved and adjusted. There is some faint writing on the top of the tube, that were written by a previous owner. This tube is untested and is being sold AS-IS. The tube will be shipped double boxed as shown in the pictures.
