Application Notes

The 2B7 is intended especially for use in AC receivers having 2.5-volt heater supply. Recommended for service as a combined detector, amplifier (radio-frequency, intermediate-frequency or audio-frequency), and automatic-volume-control tube. Complete shielding of detector circuits is generally necessary to prevent r-f or i-f coupling.
