Sensibly equivalent to:

Extras ▼

 

The CV187 is high voltage rectifier designed for high power applications. The maximum reservoir capacitor that can be fed is 4 µF and the valve needs a minimum effective series resistance of 600 Ohms.
A pair of these valves would be able to supply sufficient power of a reasonably sized transmitter.
The classic envelope is 48 mm in diameter and, excluding the B4 base pins, is 160 mm tall.
References: Data-sheet. Type CV187 was first introduced in 1947. See also 1947 adverts.
