The final 16 pages cover tube testing, suggested circuits including 9 receivers, four audio amps and a microphone preamp. Operating conditions for resistance coupled A-F amplifiers is summarized in a table and tube bulb profiles are supplied. A two-page index completes the book.This manual RC-12 is an early historical snapshot of the growing tube technology in the United Sates, and a useful guide to the very early tubes which it details. It is especially useful to those who are restorers of antique equipment and a useful look at one period of thermionic valve development for any tube enthusiast.
