So I'm off to look for a 25L6 tube for my IBM 026. John Lawson says that
the tube is a 25L6 because all the other tubes in the rack are 25L6 types
and he believes they are hammer drivers. Not to doubt the venerable
Mr. Lawson, since he did used to service these, but I just want to make
sure this is in fact the right tube type that goes into the socket that is
currently empty. See photo here:

I'd hate to plug in the wrong tube and then witness volumnious
amounts of smoke billow from within the machine. Can someone verify that
the 25L6 is indeed the correct tube for the empty socket?
Thanks!
