I expect Dalibor knows since he has tubes that have been in service for years and aside from a small contaminated batch some years ago he has an infinitesimal failure rate. He also provides a 10 year warranty on his tubes. He may or may not consider this information to be a trade secret, though. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group.
