Ray,
I use UL routinely BUT coupled with some balanced shunt feedback from the output tube anodes (the "Baby Huey" scheme). With this arrangement I can generally get away with low or no global feedback although I've used up to 6dB of global feedback with minimal image degradation.
This is mainly with lower power amps using 6GW8, EL84 and 6V6
I like its sense of speed compared to triode mode.
I like its reduced global feedback requirements compaared to pentode mode.
Cheers,
Ian
