It would be nice to have a labeled image that shows the suppressor, screen and grid. Also there is no clear description of how the pentode works -- how the screen shields the cathode from the plate to prevent electrostatic coupling and feedback, and how the suppressor prevents secondary electrons from flowing from the plate.
