CV marked valves
CV stands for Common Valve. Valves used by the British Services were marked with CV numbers. In addition a number of valves used by the GPO were CV types. CV numbers have been around since the early 1940's - CV1 was listed in the "Service List of Valves for Special Purposes" published by the Inter-Service Technical Valve Committee in 1941, though at that time their own Service List of Preferred Valves does not appear to have had any CV valves in. Certainly they were in use in 1942 as the specification sheet for the CV44 is dated 9/4/42, and also the type approval date of CV8 is given as 1942.
There is no defined sequence of numbers, though groupings are apparent, e.g. CV4xxx are 'reliable' types. In fact some early valves were given 'later' numbers.

CV codes
The codes marked on a valve are made up as follows:
(a) The CV number
(b) The broad arrow (Government mark)
(c) The date code
(d) The letter K for a valve made to specification K1001 or K1006
or
J for a valve made to the JAN or MIL specification
(e) The qualification approval letter as follows:
B when approval has been given by a UK authority
U when approval has been given by or on behalf of both UK and US authorities
D when approval has been given by the Australian Services
Note: when approval has been given for the use of a valve in MDAP equipment by the Director of Electronics Research and Development (Air) but that valve has not received qualification approval the letter X is used.
(f) Factory identification code
(g) Any other marking required by the test specification.
Items (d), (e) and (f) are arranged in that order with an oblique stroke between (e) and (f).
When a serial number is required it is sometimes put on an internal component provided it is clearly visible.
When the test specification requires an EIA or RETMA or other US type designation and a mineral filled base is used the letter Y is appended to the name to indicate this, e.g. CV509 - 6V6GY
Date codes
The date code is made up in one of two ways. A 4 digit code is made up of the last two digits of the year followed by the number of the week in the year starting at 01. Note that week 1 is defined as the week in which January 1st falls on or between Sunday and Friday. If it falls on a Saturday, week 1 starts on the 2nd January. Thus 6407 means the 7th week of 1964.
Alternatively two letters were used. This was allowed up to January 1st 1965. In this scheme the first letter A = 1945 and so on, and the second letter A=January and so on. Letters I and O were not used. Thus AA = January 1945, NF = June 1957.
If it was not possible to put all the above information on a valve, for example due to size, permission could be granted for the omission of some. The order of preferred retention is:
1) CV number
2) Factory code
3) Date code
4) Broad arrow
5) Specification and qualification letters
Where valves with allocated CV numbers are accepted to a commercial specification in the absence of a CV test specification these may only carry the CV number and the broad arrow.
If a valve which has not met some particular physical or electrical requirement is still accepted the letters to the left of the oblique stroke should be replaced or cancelled by a yellow splash.
If a valve is required before qualification approval has been given or has been withdrawn the letters to the left of the oblique stroke should be omitted or cancelled with a black, dark or neutral splash or stroke.
Warning marking for radioactive valves
All British manufactured radioactive valves should carry the word CAUTION and the standard three-bladed radioactive symbol with the chemical symbol(s) for the radioactive element(s) indicated, for example Co 60 for Cobalt 60.
The previous marking was an orange band 1/4" wide.
