1. Below is a list of electronic tubes of all kinds which were produced
in Czechoslovakia or imported into Czechoslovakia before 1945 and
therefore were on stock there at the end of World War II, and also
of tubes which were imported into Czechoslovakia after 1945. The
import of tubes, in general, slowed down after 1948 and almost ceased
by 1950. 1.
Standard Receiver Electronic Tubes
2. Old receiver electronic tubes:
These tubes were produced in Czechoslovakia or imported there until
1945. They carried a so-called old designation which conformed to
the old Philips designation. These tubes were used for older radio
receivers of Czechoslovak production which were mainly produced
before World War II, in smaller quantities during the War, and not
at all after 1945. These tubes were difficult to obtain after 1945.
There were three groups of this type of tubes:

Battery Electronic Tubes -- Also Called "b" Tubes
4. These tubes were used for portable receivers. They were imported
into Czechoslovakia, mainly from Philips, mostly between 1945 and
1948, and in a few cases after 1948. They were difficult to obtain
on the open market until 1948, and after this date it was almost
impossible to obtain them. This type of tube was not produced in
Czechoslovakia at all. The only battery electronic tube produced
in Czechoslovakia was DDC 25, put into trial production in the then
Philips AS, Prague IX (Hloubetin), at the end of World War II;
however, masa production of this tube was never begun.

this date, as there was no need for this type of tube.

Philips, but the imports were small both in number of types and
number of units.

b. There were from three to five types of electronic tubes of the

and the second was a similar type to the 1069K but was equipped
with three anodes (it was for alternate 3-phase current).
This tube was for the Tesla Roznov plant for rectifiers pro-
