Default Re: Valve testing unexpected high emission?

Tektronix used burn-in racks and defined procedures to (a) weed out early failures and (b) to get their characteristics to settle down. They then applied a label to the glass envelope with a Tek part number (but not obscuring the actual valve part number), and put them in a Tek box with the same part number on it.
