Hi,
I have a Tung-Sol 7455 tube.I'm trying to find outwhat it is. Anyone know anthing about this tube?
It stands 9 1/2" tall and is 3 5/8" in diameter. It has a 5" diameter mtal base. half the tube is glass, the rest metal. All the interior pieces (plate,grid?) are circular. There are two leads going into the base. The glass is stamped 'Tung-Sol', '7455' 'Made In USA' and some other numbers.
Thanks.
Dana

This is a hydrogen thyratron that was typically used in radar systems in the 1960s.
