WoHoo! was tuning the set and I noticed my 6AQ5s have a faint blue glow to them... looks exactly like the "flourescence" described here:

Only noticeable in near-blackness. Looks pretty cool, and sounds great... hope to get some pics if I can; the dial lights give off a lot of light, so I'll have to block them with some cardstock or so.

Still waiting for some fainter stations to come in so I can adjust the antenna trimmer I did, however, bump up the stations to where they belong.
