My walnut set's cabinet shows the 7F8 tube, but the chassis itself does not have one, it appears, but rather a miniature tube (another 6AG5?).

I am going to restore the blond TS-4D now instead, I decided. Its cabinet is in very nice condition with good decals, so maybe its CRT will be strong if I am lucky. Around 1980, I had it partially working, but that was before I knew I needed to replace every paper capacitor. I remember that I put 6000V disc capacitors in it; those will be replaced again with some ASCs that I already bought.
