Rad-Tel, the infamous el-cheapo wash-house. They advertised in the DIY'er mags like Pop'tronics and Gernsbach's Radio-Electronics. Any tube 39 cents. Somewhere in the 60's they had a price hike. Up to $0.49. They sold any thing, factory seconds, used washed tubes. The tube writing was 2nd rate too. Usually had a week-year date code. I know it was laundry date. Certainly not manufacture date. I'm pretty sure they didn't advertise in Professional mags like PF Reporter or Electronic Technician. I almost didn't post this, but what the heck. It's part of tube history. Don't worry, the few we have for sale are thoroughly tested, guaranteed and priced as used tubes.
