The same date code doesn't have much to do with matching, Richard, but they
probably are close. There is a proceedure used for matching, but you'd have to
have a basketfull of them to use it anymore. Drake original tubes have a
number written on top of them in magic marker. I've been lucky enough over the
years to find several of those. They are NEVER in a box, usually wrapped up in
some "paper like" wrap and in a nondescrete box. If you spot those, with
matching numbers at an estate sale or hamfest, GRAB THEM. I got three pairs
with a radio set just because they weren't in a box, they were considered
used!!!
