I've never seen a datasheet for these either, but at the end of the first page on several other RCA datasheets they mention that the DTF-designation is for developmental numbers. The DR2100 series was previously named DTF122-125 and the DR2200 series was named DTF137-141.
So the DTF104B might never have left the developmental stage to get a proper number. /Martin On Sunday, 26 February 2023 at 20:26:53 UTC+1 Nicholas Stock wrote: > They are nice tubes.
