Single Ended Triodes (SETs), the ultimate tube lovers dream.

RE: I have a very early version of the 2.5V TJ Mesh Plate (perferations, not real mesh)...

I find it hard to believe that firmly fixing the structure to the top of the envelope as well as the bottom helps isolate it from outside vibration. If anything, I would expect it to push the resonant frequency of the vibrating bits up which i would expect to be much more objectionable.

My gut feel is that the top support showed up in conjunction with the ST tube to make assembly easy and repeatable... nobody wants a tube with a plate leaning to one side or the other... all of the electrons will most certainly fall out.
