6CH8 Vacuum Tube New and Used

- Description
- Specifications
The 6CH8 is a 9-pin miniature multi-unit tube combining a sharp-cutoff pentode and a medium-mu triode within a single glass envelope. Designed primarily for television receiver applications, the pentode section is typically used as a video IF amplifier or sound IF amplifier, while the triode section functions as an oscillator, sync separator, or audio voltage amplifier. Operates on a 6.3V heater and fits standard 9-pin noval sockets. Available NOS and tested used.
