6106, 5Y3WGTB Tubes

[David Stinson]

Does anyone know the application for a Bendix-marked
full wave rectifier tube designated 6106?
It looks like a heavy-duty 6X5.  5 volt fil.
that heats up very slowly, taking nearly a
full minute to come up to full emission.
Does anyone need them?

Also, does anyone know about the 5Y3WGTB?
It looks just like a 5AR4 with a heather-cathode
instead of the standard 5Y3's directly heated cathode.
Does this tube just have the cathode-heater jumpered?
I understand that this tube is specific to the TV-7.
