Did that 6X5GT tube have the "X" shaped Grids or did it look like the one in the picture below? I'm asking because the 6X5s that had the "X" shaped grids were the ones that were more suseptible to dead shorting whereas the ones that had the grids that were inline like the one pictured below are less suseptible to dead shorts, that's what I was told anyways.
