In these notes we discuss the origin of shot noise ('Schroteffekt') of vacuum
tubes in detail. It will be shown that shot noise observed in vacuum tubes and
first described by W. Schottky in 1918 is a purely classical phenomenon. This
is in pronounced contrast to shot noise investigated in mesoscopic conductors
which is due to quantum mechanical diffraction of electron waves.
