"The Tube Hums At Midnight" and other radio mysteries

Ok the plate orientation theory didn't work out.

However ---- drum role please!

This is going to be like a minimal information brain teaser.

I have three matched new TungSols.
Two were used for about 200-300 hours.
One was not used.


I have Three matched Genelex.
One has 300+ hours and the other two are new.

When I put in the 200-300+ hour used tubes the hum is VERY low. The more hours the lower the hum. When I put the same brand tube in with NO hours it hums like a bastard.

Well getting closer.

Thanks for all the fun input.
