Tom<p>Working on an old <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/zenith" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>zenith</span></a> <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/antiqueradio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>antiqueradio</span></a> for a friend. Model is <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/H845" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>H845</span></a> - top of the line for its day in the 1960s. I haven't really dabbled with a <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/vintage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vintage</span></a> <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/radio" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>radio</span></a> yet, but, watching and learning from lots of vids. So far, tested some <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/tubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>tubes</span></a> and replaced 3 bad ones, though I might replace them all to ensure it continues working for a while since it's for a friend and I also bought a whole set of <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/NOStubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NOStubes</span></a> from Bob Dobush's site: www.findatube.com -- highly recommend for <a href="https://recordplug.club/tags/vacuumtubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vacuumtubes</span></a></p>
Powers<p>Trying out a Brimar 6V6G in my ‘71 Fender Champ. Its interesting how different it is from the RCA 6V6 I normally have in there. A little less volume but a bit more breakup. The Brimar 6V6GT I have breaks up much quicker than either of the other tubes. I’d use it more but its very microphonic. The Brimar 6V6G, on the other hand, is just ever so slightly microphonic so it will be usable. Amazingly, the big coke-bottle shaped tube fits fine. <a href="https://musician.social/tags/brimar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>brimar</span></a> <a href="https://musician.social/tags/nostubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>nostubes</span></a> <a href="https://musician.social/tags/fenderchamp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fenderchamp</span></a> <a href="https://musician.social/tags/vintagetubes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vintagetubes</span></a> <a href="https://musician.social/tags/vintageamps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>vintageamps</span></a></p>
