[Jukebox-list] 6973 tube

[Jens Hultgren]

6CZ5
6CM6
6EM5
three replacements for 6973. None of them are as tall as the 6973, and I
believe there is a relation between the physical size of a tube and the
power it can handle. Thus the lower output of the replacements.

Someone more knowledgeable in tube electronics should be able to elucidate.
