I've been watching this auction as well, and when I saw the closing price the only thing that popped into my head was "Holy Shit". I sure hope the buyer picks it up! Does anyone out there know the last year this tube type was available as a replacement? I'm meaning when a tv tech would go on a housecall and discover the tube was bad, when was the last year he could easily get a replacement? The reason I was wondering was because in the recent auction for a CT100 the seller had noted that the set was still under an RCA service contract in 1978, and it got me to wondering if the set was under contract and the tube was bad, could RCA still replace it? Anyway.... If someone from AK got this tube, The best of luck to you and hope all works out fine!
