Speaking of the type 41s, the plate current is 18.5 ma, verses 47 ma for the 6V6s used in the brand Z set, so all of the tubes added together don't even come close to breaking that 70 ma maximum current limit for the 6X5. As I said the previous renditions of these sets, the 40-180 and 41-280 used type 84s which are exactly the same as a 6X5 but with six pins, why no hysteria about type 84 rectifiers?
Regards
