Well, it is a detector, not a rectifier. A very special
detector in that it works from about a milivolt through
a kilovolt.

That's the way I thought of it. It's just a diode and should act like one if it's good. What gets me is the relatively tiny forward DC current rating. For tube construction, that just seems odd - especially considering it's rated at 1000V.
Thanks,
