I am working on repair of a TLD6612A  2 meter repeater amp that runs a pair
of 8560AS tubes.  It worked fine for a number of years and then suffered
what appeared to be lightning damage.

The insulator between the plate line and the plate tuning disc was arced
through among other damage.  It is a rectangular piece of clear material
that looks like mica.  I tried adding some Teflon tape to cover up the
puncture.

When I fired up the amp today, It arced through again during the tune up
process.  Anyone have suggestions for a replacement or have one in their
junk box?
