I ran into roughly the same situation a few years back. I had a 2-C
that was a real dog. It turned out that the manual said 12BZ6, the tube
was a 12BZ6, but the chassis was lettered 6BZ6. So I measured the
heater voltage at the socket just to be sure - 6.3 VAC.
Changed out the tube to a 6-volt unit and what a difference that made, hi!
On a little different subject, I was thinking that someone told me that
Drake had some units that were designed to use an 8-volt tube with 6
volts to the heater, for some arcane reason. Am I imagining this?
