HA, that’s a laugh!
I was making a joke and had no idea what was going on.
Just poking a little fun at the EL-34, which is quite similar to the 6L6, and more expensive.
An amusing story and I’m glad you got to the bottom of it.
I wish I could be right more often.

Hello Wilson,

You are correct!  I was in error.

I had to use the 'breath test' and found a faint 'GC' on the label.  I should have known, of course, by the missing pin 1.  Pin 1 is present on EL34's since it is connected to Grid 3 (supressor) to allow an external connection.  Pin 6 is missing, too, but it is not connected on the EL34 either.

Thanks for your input.  It is much appreciated.

Best Regards,

William
