Thanks bob, do you think it’s a good tube checker?

I think it should be fine as far as emission testers go but I'm no expert on them. I sold the one I had and the next owner replaced the rheostat in it and I think that repair made it work OK.
Cheers,
Bob

Well the price went too high, so I didn’t get it. Bought a Hickok model 36 instead.
