These are not beam tetrodes but tubes that actually have only 2 grids. The list would be short but for the tubes that can operate with 12 volts on their plates. |
||||||||||||
These tubes were designed for use in car radios that did not require a vibrator to produce 200 volts or so from a 12 volt battery. There are two types of these |
||||||||||||
12 volt tubes, space charge and those designated as "LV" (low voltage). In a space charge tube grid 1 has 12 volts applied to it and the signal is injected |
||||||||||||
at grid 2. A low voltage tetrode is biased in the normal way for a tetrode with 12 volts on grid 2 and the signal applied to grid 1. |
||||||||||||
Some of these have diodes or triodes in the same envelope. There are so few of these that making a separate chart would be pointless. |
