FS Box BX-8

The box is in good shape, and has a couple tubes in it. I will look at what is there and post here. $65.00 plus shipping.

Is the tube with the cap on top a VT4?

It is an RCA tube, and the only thing I see is a 926 on the base of the tube.

I could answer that. The VT-4C (AKA 211C) doesn't have a plate cap. The tube in the middle should be a VT-25 (10Y) but isn't. It's too large. But it isn't a VT-4C, either, as the top is too flat. The third tube could be a 10Y but as the other two tubes shouldn't be in a BX-8, probably isn't.
