THE LAST STAND FOR TUBE RADIO
Tube radios are ancient history, but that's exactly why they continue to fascinate preservers of radio history. Phil MacArthur pursues that noble cause....
"It's the summer of 1963 and the last few tube Trans-Oceanics are moving off the dealers' shelves. Transistors are appearing in several television applications, IBM has released at least two solid-state computers, and every teenager has an annoying little transistor radio in his or her pocket. The colossal battle between the tube and the transistor is essentially over. (The vacuum tube will, happily, be with us indefinitely, thanks to high-end audio, musicians, and collectors.) Tubes would persist in television a bit longer, but the long day of tube radio, is finally done. But, a few minutes before midnight, unusually large orders hit the doors of Toshiba, Futaba and Hitachi for five very familiar tube types -- yep, the 12BE6, 12BA6, 12AV6, 35W4, and the 50C5. The last shout for tube radio came from Japan in the form of a flood of very colorful, midget (about 100 cubic inches) AM radios bearing all manner of British nameplates -- WALES, Saxony, Essex, Windsor, Viscount, Kent.
