Beam Power Tube

Base & Bulb ( RCA DS 06/08/38)

EIA Base 7AC  EIA Bulb 10-1

Application

Coated-filament type having metal shell used as af power amplifier and modulator and as rf power amplifier and oscillator. May be used with full input to 45 MHz. For operation at 60 MHz, plate voltage and plate input should be reduced to 90 per cent of maximum ratings; at 90 MHz, to 77 per cent. Requires octal socket and may be operated in vertical position only, base up or down.Base similar to 7AC except no cathode.
