Say, Matt, what does IPA stand for in this context?? Something Power Amplifier?? I'm quite familiar with IsoPropyl Alcohol and India Pale Ale (don't mix those two up!), but obviously neither applies here.? Thanks.? ? ? ? ? Jim Ford

I think Matt you left out Beryllium Oxide dust from RF devices in that
lot;)...
I still have a half-dozen solid state IPAs with the BeO2 scull & crossbones on them.? Oddly enough, I was never dumb enough to take an angle grinder to a ceramic vacuum tube... I don't even know why someone would need to do such a thing even if it did not have BeO2 lurking inside, ready to cause a slow, lingering death.
