Philco 81 Questions
#9

Welcome. Variac is nice to have and you want to look at getting an isolation transformer especially for the radio chassis' with out transformers.
Look up, making a dim bulb tester that will be something you can use.
Tube tester nice to have also But not an immediate need.
Oh yea, if your going to do a lot of radios you will want to get an signal generator.
