For those rebuilding their electrical systems, I may have a source of vacuum tubes, just pay shipping. Let me know who is interested and I will put you in touch with the source.

Tom,

The crew of the Torsk is definitely interesting in acquiring vacuum tubes.  We are nearing the end of our Radio Room restoration and are nearing the start of the Control Room restoration.  Needless to say, all the equipment we are making progress on restoring needs vacuum tubes.

The COB has a better handle on that than me, but yes, we do have tubes we would be happy to swap.  I'll have to get Chief Bill to send me a list of our excess tubes.
