considered by many to be obsolete.Although the days of running to anycorner store for a needed tube are gone,many technicians and hobbyists stillrepair and use tube-based equipment.Tube Substitution Handbook is writtenfor this group.  \nTube substitution is one of the only feasible methods to repair or restore originaltube equipment,but it should not be performed haphazardly.This handbook,itemizing allknown vacuum tubes that have been or are still being manufactured,along with their replacements,willmake tube substitution not only possible,butrelatively straigh+-forward and efficient.  \nThis guide is divided into three parts:  \nSection 1:Vacuum Tube Substitution,listing all knownvacuum tubes (excluding picture tubes)in numeric-alphabeticorder,with reference to appropriate substitutions and diagramsdetailing base pin arrangement.  \nSection 2:Picture Tube Substitution,listing all known picturetubes in numeric-alphabetic order,with reference to appropriatesubstitutions and diagrams detailing base pin arrangement.  \nSection 3:Base Diagrams,illustrating nearly 900 pinarrangements which detail each ofthe tubes listedin thehandbook.  \n# Vacuum TubeSubstitutes\n\nThis section lists,in numeric-alphabetic order,all known receiving tubes.To use thislisting,look in the first column for the tube typeyou want to replace,then finda suitablesubstitute in the third column.The substitutes are only those tubes which have similaror improved characteristics and can be inserted directly into the socket.No rewiringormechanical changes are needed,although the associated servicecontrols may haveto be readjusted.The symbols which may follow a substitute,refer to specialcharacteristics of the tube and are shown in the key below.When no substitutesare shown,none are recommended.The second column contains the basingcode.To use this number,turn to Section 3 to reference your tube substitution selectionagainst
