One of the two tubes is the rarer antenna tube.  They made much less of
them.  I actually try and avoid them because they don't match my others.  I
have close to 30 tubes now and a bunch of clocks.  I think Michail almost
had enough of the antenna tubes to make a clock with them maybe?  I just
didn't buy any of the, to me, kinda off tubes.
