NOTES:
1, This sube is intended for use in automobile radios operated from a nominal 12 volt battery
Design of the tube is such that the beater will operate satisfactorily over the range 10.0
volts t0 15.9 volts, and that the maximum ratings provide a safety factor for the wide
voltage variation encountered with is typeof supply
Test condition only,
Contact potential developed acrose specified grid resistor,
Measured at an outpus voltage of 1.0 volt RMS.
10 Megohms Max
QUICK REFERENCE DATA
