Default Re: Nuvistor experiments-Where should I start?

In the USA, I think they were used in lots of domestic TV's.

The US military probably made some use of them, as their metal can would offer protection against EMP, and so too, their Soviet equivalents.

But in hobbyist terms, (leaving out 2m converters) I think I've seen saw more articles about Acorn valves (c1930's) than Nuvistors.
