New Project: 1934 Colonial 662 (corrected model)
#8

Hi Aran,

Yes, the 84 / 6Z4 is a 5 pin (UY Base). It is used in quite a few Philco table radios (41-255, etc), as Philco used them in car radios. I think that Philco was an early convert to 6Volt tubes because of their car radio business. This tube was eventually replaced by the octal 6X5 or the 7 pin miniature 6X4. These all have a max DC current between 40 and 50 mA.

I think that there were several companies that built for Silvertone, including Arvin, Colonial, Detrola, Emerson, Howard and supposedly Zenith.
