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.
