   Sorry for my inept response to Peter Wieck as regards 171A triodes.  (Repeated   
   attempts, 20 years since I've posted).  I'm on the stereo side of the fence   
   cousin, but if only a 171A will save your sweet radio, I'm sure I can find and   
   give it to you for    
   free.  Only one, and nobody else, but I get the honest angst of a tube gear   
   lover, so contact me and I'll try to help out.  Good luck with your music!
