G8LSD Valve Collection
The X81 is a triode hexode mixer for use in communications receivers. The triode oscillator is designed to produce 10 volts pk-pk to drive the hexode mixer. The all glass envelope is protected by an all encompassing aluminium screening can that also serves to hold the spigot carrying base in place.
The Osram paper label is on the opposite side to the printed type designation.
The wide glass tube envelope is 32 mm in diameter, and excluding the B8B base pins is 59 mm tall.
