Another old-timer tube/valve question

Cursitor Doom · 2019-06-02T15:57:22+00:00

Gentlemen, What are the typical average/maximum operating temperatures of a full wave rectifying tube/valve? Is it normal for them to become too hot to touch after only a minute or two? I'm talking specifically about the 5Y3GT in this context. -- This message may be freely reproduced without limit or charge only via the Usenet protocol.
