  I've often seen the same thing. A tube tests low, then run it for a while in a circuit, test it again and it tests much better. This doesn't always happen - unfortunately - but often enough that I typically try run a tube in a circuit for a while before testing it.

  It would have been the same case when brand new. That is partially why vendors burn-in tubes for 24 hours prior to matching

  I'm pushing 50, and I'm here to tell you it is definitely possible!
  Maybe I need a couple of hours burn in...sorry. That was just a gimme.
