The diagram shows the output tube as 7308- one of the tubes that came in the kit is labeled 12BH7A- is this the output tube?  I did not see data that shows 12BH7A is substitute for 7308.

The 12BH7 is the power supply regulator tube, which goes in the hole by the power transformer.

The output tube is labeled as a 7308, but we supply a 6922/6DJ8.  This is the center tube of the front three sockets.
