21AXP22 tragedy

[ohohyodafarted]

About 2 weeks ago I made another trip to Hawkey with 2 under vacuum
21AXP22's that were under vacuum. The purpose of my trip to Hawkey was to rebuild both tubes.

Unfortunately, something went wrong in Scotty's evacuation oven. BOTH, yes BOTH of my good under vacuum duds incurred a catastrophic failure of the glass face plate of the tubes. Both of my tubes were a total loss.

I am now short 2, 21AXP22's for my sets.

IF there is anyone out there who has any under vacuum 21AXP22 duds that they would be willing to sell me, please PM me. I need to find 2 more rebuildable tubes before Scotty closes shop.

Surely someone out there must have some under vacuum duds that they are willing to part with. I have a CTC4 Director, and a CTC4 Hallicrafter Clone that now both need a crt due to this tragedy.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can sell me an under vacuum dud or give me a referal to someone who has one that is willing to part with it.
