Sooo .... I am not an electronics guy (I am a machinist by trade) but I do keep a number of tube radios going and build reproduction regenerative receivers once in a while. I also have about 500 vacuum tubes ..... bought some, given some, ..... the pile just keeps getting bigger ... I am guessing about 200 are "usable".
I need a "cheap" tube tester.
I looked on e-bay and see dozens .... start at $20 and got to $1000!
This is not a main hobby for me and I don't want (and don't have) to spend more than I need to but I do want to get a decent tester.
Can anyone give me any guidance as to what I am looking for?
There is just so many and I have not idea what I am looking for in a tester.
Thanks ..... Mike
