Agree, 7S and 7AC look the same to me as well.

Only, tube type 8417 is listed as having an 8LY base on my favorite online tube database, NJ7P.org?

Edit: Duncan Amps shows 8417 as having the same pinout as 6L6. I'm not familiar with the 8LY designation.

Edit #2: RCA tube manual RC-30 shows the 8LY designation as having pins 1 and 3 tied together (plate). Otherwise the same.
