I'm not clear what your

my points, I believe they support them.
Sorry, I meant to add that it's quite apparent that the
Williams-Kilburn tube wasn't as such used in the Whirlwind, but the M.I.T.

the implementation was very different. You are correct, and I should have
checked more than one source. :-)
