["Robert S.Ross VA3SW" <va3sw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

 Hi Guys:

  I attended my Hometown Local Hamfest in London, ONTARIO today and 
picked up a pair of Great Looking RF TRANSMITTER TUBES......

General Electric GL-892-R  5 KW Forced Air Cooled RF Amplifier and Class 
B Modulator  (Weighs about 25 Pounds at least!!) Used in Commercial AM 
Broadcast Transmitter.

Western Electric 357-A 350 Watt RF Amplifier  (Similar to the RCA 833 Tube.

Does anyone have any comments, War Stories, Info, Rarity Opinions or 
Value on these 2 Tubes.  Not a lot online about them...but I'll keep 
digging!! Any info or thoughts on them would be appreciated.

Thanks...73 ROB VA3SW
