Thank you gents for your suggestions.
I'm regularly perusing ebay, found a couple that were already sold. Called Find-a-Tube in Feb but they were out. I think I'm going to cycle through my resources again and hopefully find a rogue FM 1000. In the mean time I'll set up a 6BN6 and see if it works.

Thanks again, and I'll keep posting my progress.
