True. Those late 60's early 70's D&A CB linear amps were using color tv horizontal output tubes like that.
I was reading that guys used to use those lousy Realistic Lifetimer tubes in them so that when they burnt out they could take them back to Radio Shack and get another tube for free under warranty when they burnt out.
