Substitutes ................................... 6GC6
Glass octal type used as output amplifier in horizontal-deflection circuits of television equipment where high surge voltages occur during short duty cycles.
A single 6BG6GT is capable of deflecting all types of directly viewed magnetic-deflection kinescopes having deflection angles not greater then 50 degrees and operating at anode voltages not exceeding 10 KV.
Tube requires octal socket. Vertical tube mounting is prefered but horizontal operation is permissable if pins 2 and 7 are in the vertical plane.
