These are T3, early ECC88 made in Heerlen, Netherlands. This listing includes white-ink Bugle Boy large halo getter tubes from 1959-1962, codes GA3, GA4, GA6, and GA7. All have the Heerlen triangle etched in the glass. SoundByDoc has classified five main types of Heerlen ECC88: T1 (1957): Ultra rare pinched waist, D getter. T2 (1958-1959): D getter GA0 GA1 GA2 code. T3 (1959-1962): Large halo getter GA3, GA4, GA6, and some GA7. T4 (1962-1968): Small halo getter GA7, GAA, GAB, GAC. T4bb: same as T4 but with at least some of the bugle boy logo visible. T5 (1965-1972): Orange Ink, Dimple Getter, or A-frame getter support (any or all of these qualities makes it a T5).

Your tube has been fully tested on a computer-regulated, USA-made Amplitrex AT1000 on Fixed Bias setting with WEAK results. It has also passed shorts and gas tests, but did not meet our requirements for a used, good tube because of weak results in GM or plate current or both. It might work in some circuits, but performance is NOT guaranteed. The tube might have mechanical wear or have the label rubbed off - these are very old! Tubes that test used good or like new (tNOS) are often available in a separate listing. Only tNOS and Used Good tubes are eligible for our 60-day performance guarantee.
