The specification for the CV1193 was based on the X65 and before the CV register the service code was NR82.
This triode hexode frequency changer was designed by Marconi. It was for superhet use and radio or radar reception would have been the area of usage.
The oscillator section would be run from a stabilised supply and the injection voltage was designed to be 10 Volts peak to peak. As was typical of the time the signal was applied to g1 and this was brought out to the top cap for maximum isolation.
The KB/ZB identifies this valve as being made to specification K1001 or K1006, the B denotes qualification by a UK authority and the ZB identifies the maker as MO Valve Company, Perivale.
The heater wires are coiled together to cancel out mains hum - usually found on audio valves not RF valves. The folded tabs on the lower mica are holding the two small plates that form the triode anode.
The top mica showing the multiple wire grids.
The wide glass tube envelope is 29 mm in diameter and, excluding the IO base pins, is 93 mm tall.
