I considered that, but that seems much more risky, since I have never swapped a tube before, and there's a good chance the electronics in the 801 are bad as well, whereas I really do believe the 802 is working.
This isn't like tube swapping from a TV... it's just a matter of pulling the anode wire and yoke connector.
I should still have a handful of spare B&W tubes hiding in the attic.
