Welcome to the Phorum!

I don't think you have the sockets for those tubes in that tester either. Check the continuity of the filaments and if those are good, there is a reasonable chance the tubes will be good enough to make it work. Anyone close to you that might have an older tester?

Cheers,
Bob
