Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

well...

... I think she was related by marriage at one time to Alesa Vaic... sister of his sister in law or something. In any case I think there was a big falling-out between some of them.

I think their 45 is not an offcut of an EML, but simply nearly the same tube produced by the same factory. The EML, Vaic, Kron and EAT tubes all share such a common family resemblance, I think they are all made in the old Tesla factory or at least there is a common sharing of parts suppliers and techniques. All very similar, esp. things like filament springs.

EAT still has some stock of old AVVT tubes, AV8's for example. but, they too are somewhat overpriced compared to other sources.

EAT seems to have some nice tubes, but given the price, the same thing is available else where for less.

As for Josefina herself... well, she's quite charming in person. Certainly a very nice woman, I have no problem with her. Have you met her Robert? If not, maybe *you* should get out more often... ;-) She'll likely be @ CES I bet.

I give her credit for trying at least to make a go of the tube business.
