RE: Russian 6C33C A Ticking Tube?

Yes, the 6C33 draws a lot of heater current (and plate current for that matter). What you are hearing is the thick glass envelope warming up. Every 6C33 that I have used does this a little bit, it's nothing to worry about. (Despite the other answers from folks who haven't used them)
