Hi Everyone, I'm in the market for 5092-style tubes, but ones without radioactive material in them. I read through many of the threads here and I know some are of the opinion that there's no danger with the thorium or the krypton, but I just assume avoid that material all the same. (Messing around with anything that is or supposedly was radioactive seems like a bit of an undue risk for my hobby.)
So, I need to buy four to six 5092-style tubes and I'm wondering what models to search for that don't have radioactive material? Do the Russian IN-4's and IN-1's have the radioactive material? Do all Burroughs tubes? And by the way, if I buy some Russian or Polish tubes (I have a set of IN-2's) how do I tell if they have the radioactive material? I understand that the American tubes are stamped with a radioactive symbol. (The ones I have glow orange and not pink.) Any thoughts would be great! -Ian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group. To post to this group, send an email to neonixi...@googlegroups.com.
