This photo of an eye-tube came from my Truetone model D-692 (late version). As you can see the dark and light green colors are reversed. It works just fine though. It is nice and bright and very responsive it's just that the colors are reversed! What could cause this? I thought it might be the 1meg resistor in the eye-tube socket but would that cause this kind of color switch? It's just a plain old 6g5 eye-tube. ---Vant Electrical restoration Thu, 17 Dec 2009 23:56:08 GMT http://www.tuberadioforum.com/electrical-restoration-f4/weird-eye-tube-responce-t642.htm#3843 http://www.tuberadioforum.com/electrical-restoration-f4/weird-eye-tube-responce-t642.htm http://www.tuberadioforum.com/the-clubhouse-f1/tubes-radio-forum-t685.htm denver Just something i came up with listen to old radio.
