1936 RCA 5T
#12

I have seen a couple of radios where someone had put in a 45 tube where the 80 should be.
 On  one of those occasions   I asked the seller why that tube was in there and he told me that is where it belongs, because it fits.
 There are a lot of people out there that do not have a clue about how anything works, or how it goes together.
 It is not good but the bad part of it is,     these people raise their children the same way.
