Nice image Norm. I used to repair and rebuild old tube equipment and this image has brought me back to those days. The classic 'tube' sound will never be imitated.

I sure wish I could purchase some of those old tubes, I have several radios that could use them. The light is a nice touch.

Cool shot, Norm! How'd you get that pinkish star glow in the middle? It's certainly a relic from the distant past of electronics.

All the best,

Endre

Thanks Oregon Gal and Strad for your comments. I don't know where you could find the tubes for your radio's, Im sure there should be someone who still has them , try looking on the internet my best guess. The star glow is done in photoshop under filters,Render, lens flare.

Great idea, Norm. From the days of the self fix-it. Just take your tubes in to be tested, and replace as required. Now we just throw stuff away.
