This tube and all others, has been tested on a B&K Dynaquick 7,00 Tube tester. It shows grid full emission.

Lindal 6JB6A matched pair (quantity 2) New Old Stock / New In Box. USA-made beam power tubes in original Lindal boxes – high-quality rebranded equivalents to GE/RCA types. Excellent drop-in finals for the popular Drake T-4X, T-4XB, and T-4XC transmitters. These sweep tubes provide reliable performance in classic Drake stations. Great spares or direct replacement for your vintage Drake rig.

6JB6A tubes are a rebranded USA-made vacuum tube, typically sourced from major manufacturers like GE or similar production runs. Lindal was not a primary tube manufacturer but a rebrander/distributor that packaged quality surplus or OEM tubes in the 1960s–1970s era. They are functionally equivalent to standard GE/RCA/Sylvania 6JB6A tubes and perform well
