A Mullard question


Hi all, My question is this: I realize mullard tubes were made under different labels. Did amperex and mullard ever join ranks? Also did the words great britian spell out as such or was GT used on the mullard tubes? I hope someone can help me with this. Thanks in advance.

You might want to try calling Ken Chait at Advantage Tube Services, # 1-800-273-7234.
Amperex and mullard were both brands of Phillips - so in some (many) cases, they are the same tube. Definitely same tooling in many cases. What was printed on tube is irrelavent really. All phillips tubes had etched codes determining tube type, date, place of manufacture.
