25 detector low frequency amplifier tubes, 1 S 5 T - type.
Since it appeared impossible to procure tubes from Budapest within such
a short time, it was decided to first attempt the purchase of five sets
through illegal Western channels.
The tubes are required for army ra'io sets which are to be built by
Soviet orer. Five models are scheduled for delivery to Moscow where it
will be decid-d whether or not the developed model will be manufactured
on a large scale.
