I used to have a Radiola 41 that was supposed to use a 10, but the cost of getting a 10 for it was rather prohibitive. Later on I got a nice Zenith 34P with a good 10 in it that I shared between the two radios for a while until I sold the Radiola. I've never, ever run across a used or NOS 10 or it's variants around here. I rarely play my Zenith because of the expense of that one tube.
No matter where you go, there you are.
