HI Guys,
I have just picked up my latest project buy off of ebay. A Kriesler 11-81. It was advertised as not working so I knew I would have to do some work. I powered it up and found that the 6N8 heater is not coming on. I understand that this Valve is not very common and was wondering if anyone has one or knows of where I may be able to buy one?
Thanks for your help
Kind Regards
Paddy

EVATCO in QLD has the 6N8 listed, but it ain't cheap:

It looks like a 6DC8 or EBF89 would be a good sub if you can't find a 6N8 for a decent price. Though I don't know if these subs are any easier to find... Smile
