There appears to be only four brands of these available - Ken Rad,Sylvania,NU and Raytheon.Are there any others?

When did production cease on these? Most seem to be 1940's vintage

These were military WWII radio tubes, and most are stashed in Europe - I've had good luck with one guy in France who lists them occasionally on eBay. Pete has an extensive discussion about the 307a (aka vt-225).

TubeData lists Western Electric also, but no idea who really manufactured, and who rebranded.

I know someone who has built a 307A based amp and he said that getting matched tubes was quite difficult. I hope TTVJ are keeping a stash for their customers!
