RFT stands for Rundfunk- und Fernmelde-Technik - a group of state-owned technology companies in the former German Democratic Republic (East Germany). This company produced valves for Telefunken and Siemens and made the famous Siemens EL34. These valves are of very good quality and have excellent consistency.
German made EM83 magic eye tuning indicator valve that is now very hard to find.The most common use of this valve was in studio tape machines as an indicator. It has also been used as a level indictor in old E.M.I recording studio equipment.
The EM83 is an unusual dual magic eye valve. Electrically it is similar to the EMM801, but the fluorescent target consists of two metal cowls inside the tube as opposed to the fluorescent screen area deposited on the inner surface of the glass envelope employed in the EMM801.
