Another noob with another Philco!
#10

Thanks my friend.  I'm really not having much luck finding anyone with a tube tester in the area.  Maybe someone will come across this post and recommend a person that has one that can test the tubes for me in the Atlanta area.  Just now getting around to that part of the process. Too much else going on during this holiday. I've got two little ones still and am a single dad. Plus, this d**ned Lyme disease has reared it's ugly head over the season. That's part of the reason why I got the radio, for my bad days to keep me busy. But this time it was just too much coupled with all of the other stuff. But I'm back on it now!

You can call me Jerry if you don't want to use my handle.  I get it.  Makes some folks nervous.
I have a finely tuned horse puckey detector.  Don't blame me if it goes off. Oldtimer
