Forum Participant1) The catch is I will not be shipping. The pair of 83 tubes are Mercury Vapour type rectifiers. Neither you nor I want to be held responsible for a broken tube.
I do go down to Duncan and sometimes Brentwood Bay.
One 83 has the standard UX, 4-pin base, the other is an 83V which fits an octal socket. The Hickock 6000 tube tester uses one of these tubes.2) A pair of 807 tubes with brown UX4 bases. These tubes are equivalent to 6L6 and sometimes audiofools drool about them. I wouldn’t know myself,
but they’d look very nice in push-pull in an amp or in a single ended stereo amp.
The catch is I can’t test them but maybe that can be arranged. Look them up, high power in a tall package.3) A pair of Rogers 2X2 rectifiers. They are similar to 2X3 but have 4 pins. They can be run in series on 5 volts. These also appear to be NIB.
All tubes pictured have their heater filaments intact. If you have a tube tester with a 4 pin socket we can try testing,
otherwise we’ll discuss relative values and make a deal.There are 35-40 1930’s radio tubes, half of them in correct boxes, going probably to a vendor, multiple 24A, NOS 5V4G, 6SN7’s, plus multiple used pulls with no boxes, but with filaments intact.
If interested, or if you need a tube I might have here, garage sale prices, don’t dilly dally. Cheers!-

Forum ParticipantHello Mr. Moe, we had some technical difficulties here but to answer your question, Yes, I will ship tubes to Canadians by Canada Post or by other means.
Let me know what you are interested in. John -
