the second s again according to the tube chart and sams the 2nd sound IF is supposed to be a 6BA6 but in the set is a 6AU6 , again will that work or should i put a 6BA6 there ?
one side note is sams says its supposed to have a 16AP4 but the tube chart and the crt in the set is a 16DP4 , perhaps this was just not mentioned in the sams or its a later production with that crt added because the model number instead of being 950 it is 950G , nothing important but was interesting.

A 6V6 works fine in place of a 6K6.
