in several widths and you can order any number of different types of terminals. The ones I've investigated were in Stancil Hoffman mo pic 35mm recorders and Tektronix oscilliscopes made in the late 50s and early 60s. And also in Military equipment. GRASS ekg and eeg equipment also used it. I could send you some pics. Ground buss are generally seperate and use heavy 12awg buss bar wire. It's a good idea to keep cathode resistors away from plate resistors i.e not side by side (they will emi/rf talk to one another and certainly not two side by side diff amp plate resistors (like this --, not like this=). Seperate them! I've used this approach for years and it seems to work well. You need to first decide what needs to have very short leads (capacitive compensation-lead or lag) and they need to be on the tube socket pins preferably, with the sockets turned to allow the shortest lead. The rest can be put on the fibreglass boards. I've seen different approaches; resistors on one side and capacitors on the reverse side. Laying out can be a real exercise in 3D manipulation. Good luck! Ray Hughes P.S. Keystone's web site: www.keyelco.com
