Hey Guys, here is a head scratcher...

I overlooked this the other night. In the HV cage, where there is supposed to be a 3A3 there was a 3DJ3..
The difference in these 2 tubes is that the working plate voltage of the 3A3 is 47vdc. The 3DJ3 has a working plate voltage of 25vdc. What would be the reason for someone to use the 3DJ3 HV tube and does this cause any issues with the set? The tube is still reading barely in the green if I test it as the proper 3DJ3, but testing it as a 3A3 it goes way into the questionable are, of course..
