RE: England Brimar tubes

May be some confusion here . Just about every manufacturer made 'mil spec' tubes . These so called 'mil spec' types are actually ruggedised meaning they were designed to function in harsh environments . Any ruggedised valves (apart from the old CV1/2/3 types used as proximity fuses in WW2 shells) will typically have CV4xxx codes such as CV4079 , CV4004 , CV4003 , CV4024 etc . Brimar CV511 for instance is just a 6V6GT with low loss micanol base . Nothing 'mil-spec' about it at all apart from it would have been used in government owned equipment , not necessarily for the armed forces
