A414

Philips Miniwatt A414 is a directly heated, low-microphony receiving triode designed for detector and amplifier service, especially in ultrashort-wave receivers. Its ruggedized construction reduces microphone effects, while its economical 4 V, 80 mA filament permits direct operation from a storage battery.
