Look up Jack Orr, he sells them cheaper than anybody as far as NOS tubes go, buddy of mine just got 8 for his elkin and I think it was less than $70 shipped.
"Over 50,000 tubes from a private 40 year collection. selling nos tubes for 40% off list price, and good used tested and boxed tubes are 70% off list price Also have about 40 antique radios that all work, they have all been repaired. they range from $25 to $250
Please advise me to what is a good replacement mic for my SR-497HPC... Answer: 497 is "wired like Cobra", so many choices available. That radio does not need a power mic, so purchase a stock "coffin style" mic with a decent cord, like the ones that Astatic uses. The Superstar DM-507 is my go-to. https://www.ebay.com/itm/3050474478...adANq91JSiEEnz8EGqPJRBloTgEyaVsBoCtoMQAvD_BwE $12.99 + .99 cent shipping.
