Not dissimilar to an MKT4 (7 pin version)

Hello,
I think it is actually a Cossor MP/Pen http://www.r-type.org/exhib/aad0248.htm.
The MKT4 is equivalent to the MP/Pen but it is supposed to be a beam tetrode rather than a pentode.
I think that the MKT4 on r-type is probably a re-labelled MP/Pen.
Yours, Richard
