Jim, I have sold a lot of these tubes to hams and have not had any "bad" comments HOWEVER, This is not necessarily a tube for the beginner. It likes a pv of > 5kv The tube has a high pout (35pf) so care has to be taken if you want 10m or higher. Components for the tank, etc are "heavy duty" Its a big tube so the mechanical requirements will not lend itself to a "desk top" amp. ON THE OTHER HAND It has a high Mu so you can get a lot of power with < 100 watts of drive No socket required Reasonable filament requirement ( 15v @ 15 a)) Tube cost is reasonable. Good luck.
