Here is a close up of the 1940s military 5R4GY showing the twin getters on the bottom. Most are angled like this and some are flat across. The later version only has one bottom getter and does not perform as well.

Now online! Some of the early Internet radio shows we did on the audiotubes.com web page. WBDJ was our radio station we had on the web site just for fun nearly 20 years ago. I ran across most of the original shows and have them on Mixcloud now. Pictured here with a friend back when we ran lights and sound at our high school auditorium in addition to radio stations. Easy to see how I became a tube geek.
