Some of the tuning indicators (Magic Eyes, Eye Tubes) are getting harder to
find now. Was that beam-=switching pentode ever used in FM Tuners in the
Ststes (it never was in the UK). It's very hard to find over here.but
that might be a country thing.
I've seen some videos of homebrew magic eyes. Most of them are
rectangular and move linearly rather than round and moving radially.

What are the people with these high-end Tube Amps
using for thier AM/FM
radio's? =A0Or are they simply connected to high-end turntables?
They generally do not use their tuners, even if they have them. Even
so, 99* percent of the tubes used in AM/FM tuners are common as dirt -
no need for new production.
* Without doing research, name one that fits in the 1 percent -
generally not what you think.
