All,
Does anyone have a figure on the amount of UV that the 83 Rectifier tube puts out ? The reason I ask is my enclosure will be made of cherry - which upon harvesting is a light pink; but it turns that nice rich red color over the years...Due to UV light and oxidation. So...I don't want to have a blotch of darker area surrounding the 83 while the rest of the enclosure takes its 'natural' aging time.
If the numerical value is somewhat high, I think I will construct a nice brass 'reflector' that can stand behind the '83. Might look kinda neat anyway...
Thanks a bunch,
Steve
