The term All American Five (abbreviated AA5) is a colloquial name for mass-produced, superheterodyne radio receivers that used five vacuum tubes in their design. These radio sets were designed to receive amplitude modulation (AM) broadcasts in the medium wave band, and were manufactured in the United States from the mid-1930s until the early 1960s.
ST – Shouldered tube; GT – Glass tube; MT – Miniature tube, such as Noval B9A or Miniature 7-pin B7G; FL – Subminiature all-glass elliptical body and flat bases with long, inline "flying leads" (wire-ends) that are soldered into the circuit

Octal bases, as defined in IEC 60067, [10] diagram IEC 67-I-5a, have a 45-degree angle between pins, which form a 17.45 mm (11 ⁄ 16 in) diameter circle around a 7.82 mm (5 ⁄ 16 in) diameter keyed post (sometimes called a spigot) in the center. Octal sockets were designed to accept octal tubes, the rib in the keyed post fitting an indexing ...

A fitting or adapter is used in pipe systems to connect sections of pipe (designated by nominal size, with greater tolerances of variance) or tube (designated by actual size, with lower tolerance for variance), adapt to different sizes or shapes, and for other purposes such as regulating (or measuring) fluid flow.
The magic eye tube (or valve) for tuning radio receivers was invented in 1932 by Allen B. DuMont (who spent most of the 1930s improving the lifetime of cathode ray tubes, and ultimately formed the DuMont Television Network). [5] [6] [7] The RCA 6E5 from 1935 was the first commercial tube. [8] [9]
