Yes, it was. I just happened to be browsing through eBay and stumbled upon it a few hours before bidding ended. I was quite surprised to see it was in my area at a reasonable price.

I hope I didn't snatch it away from you

No I just surf through the old tv's on ebay about twice a week .
Im really glad you bought it .

They are quite a neat set , I can see some of the caps in my 10T4 is going to be a tough go , everything is mounted on 2 double sided boards , almost like a printed circuit .

By the way I have the 10T4 photofact on a PDF It doesn't say that it covers the 806 , but Im pretty sure the chassis is the same .
Just a newer year and a bit different cabinet .
If you would like a copy PM me .

GE, save a few pennies? no way!

Actually, it's easy - most tubes of that vintage just need a hookup on that side of the socket, so, it made sense to just make a 1/2 socket plug.
