Here's more....

If that's the only sheet that everyone is looking at, its very little data to go by.

section iii is max I think, please correct me if I'm wrong.

I couldn't resist and bought a box of a dozen 6Π3C just because they were so cheap. These are 6Π3C, not 6Π3C-E. Searching the net, the information I found suggests the 6Π3C is not robust like the 6Π3C-E, but that it works very well and sounds good, too, at Va=250. Is there anyone out there who has actual experience with this particular variant of the tube and who can comment?
The 6Π3C is the standard version. You may use it in any circuit designed for 6Π3C-E's or 6L6G's.

Main Russian suffixes:
P (Cyrillic) = R (Roman) = special quality
E = E = extended lifetime
B = V = ruggedized
K = K = vibration resistant
