OVRC Tube Club - Members Only Page

 

Tube Club Back Ground: the Tube Club was initiated in the early years of the OVRC. Several vacuum tube donations were made to the club at the time. To ensure that all members had a fair access to this resource as well as providing a continuous supply of much needed tubes to allow many of our members to restore antique radios to their original conditions. The TubeClub tries to fulfill these needs by maintaining a tube stock list and making tubes readily available at our club venues.

 

How to Buy Tubes: There are several ways to purchase tubes from the tube club.

  • Come to the club monthly meetings- Many of the more sought for tubes are available at the club meetings. You can requests for specific tubes to be brought to the meetings. Please allow for reasonable time before meetings to ensure tubes can be located and testing if necessary. More info on club meetings?

  • Email our Tube Club custodian, Bob Laporte, at tubes@ovrc.org
  • Tube Prices: Common tubes will range from $2.00 to $10.00. Prices for vintage, collectibles, and audio classics are priced proportional to current market prices. Please see tubelist for more details.

 

Tube Club Guarantees: All tubes that are sold have been tested. In an event that the tube does not work as advertised, a full refund will be made.

Please Note: There have been changes to some tube Prices - Please contact Bob Laporte at tubes@ovrc.org for more info.
