Extras ▼

 

The CV3908 (commercial equivalent is the 6BH6) is a high impedance, medium gain signal amplifier pentode. It has a low heater current requirement and was designed for use in car radio and other mobile equipment.
The suppressor grid looks to be close wound - a possible dual control pentode?
The thin glass tube envelope is 18 mm in diameter and, excluding the B7G base pins, is 46 mm tall.
