I have a 17LP4 that is NOS rebuilt by a rebuilder that has been out of business for several years.
I can let you have it for $50 plus shipping.

That's a number that sounded like ones I have in my warehouse. It was close but what I have is a 17BP4 and 17QP4. Julian

OMG, that's the best news I've heard all week!

I'll have to get an idea of what this would cost to safely ship it, of course. Never had anything this large or fragile shipped to me! I'm not sure how soon I can swing it, but I'll let you know something.

17LP4 just arrived!

Just giving this old thread a bump to let you guys know that I finally did get a 17LP4. I appreciate all the help guys, and much thanks to tvrepairtech for getting this great tube to me safely! It was packed very well, doubled boxed in what turns out to be the biggest package I've ever gotten in the mail!



Unlike the original, this one uses a straight beam gun ( no need for an ion trap ) and has ceramic support rods rather than glass.



This tube appears to have been rebuilt sometime prior to 1971, at least that's what I gather based on the old news papers inside the box!



It had been stored in a box originally labeled for an 17HP4B







Sure is spiffy! Can't wait to see how it looks glowing in my Zenith!

Actually... just to give you an idea, here it is running hooked to the seller's chassis as a demonstration before I bought it:
