[Thursday] My WTIC rectifier tube

[Len Arzoomanian]

I have a rectifier from the WTIC transmitter in Connecticut.  I actually found the webpage of some alumni from WTIC and they put my tube on their website.  This was from a 50K transmitter. This was one of six of these tubes used in the rectifier circuit to produce 18,000 volts for the final stage of the transmitter.  Its got mercury in it by the way so I have to be careful not to break it.
