  2. All American Five - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_American_Five

    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.

    The AN/URM-25 was part of a series of vacuum tube-based signal generators built for the U.S. military in the early Cold War-era.. Today they are collected and used by vintage amateur radio and antique radio enthusiasts who say they provide reasonably high accuracy and stability for a low cost, with build quality reflecting tough military construction requirements and standards.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentagrid_converter

    The pentagrid converter is a type of radio receiving valve (vacuum tube) with five grids used as the frequency mixer stage of a superheterodyne radio receiver. The pentagrid was part of a line of development of valves that were able to take an incoming RF signal and change its frequency to a fixed intermediate frequency , which was then ...

    Tubes used in AC-powered radio receivers of the early 1930s 2A3 – Directly heated power triode, used for AF output stages in 1930s–1940s audio amplifiers and radios. 2A5 – Power Pentode (Except for heater, electronically identical to types 42 and 6F6 )

  7. Traveling-wave tube - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traveling-wave_tube

    The TWT is an elongated vacuum tube with an electron gun (a heated cathode that emits electrons) at one end. A voltage applied across the cathode and anode accelerates the electrons towards the far end of the tube, and an external magnetic field around the tube focuses the electrons into a beam. At the other end of the tube the electrons strike ...
