They seem to be the same. Wikipedia has a drawing of one with the caption: 'Evacuated (or vacuum) tubes panel'.

Help me choose the correct tense (The fireman had saved the house before much...) • position of preposition in question • collective nouns • Is it right to say "He does speak a lot"? • an English question (verb but can be changed into nouns by add -ing?) • weather forecast (phrase 'upper teens') • "yet" and "already" • Finding the unnecessary word: We'd have to come to some sort of decision... • A paragraph in the Past - can Present Simple be used? • So or such? ('so a lot of people' vs 'such a lot of people') • I'm not into crafts myself • what is the pural form for "Fish" actually? • What is missing in "Every Little Helps"
