Philco 42-380 safety cap
#9

Ohhhhh I get it now! Wow your never to old to learn from others. I Love restoring these old radio's, But I want to be safe. My next question is I have a model BK 700 tube tester I tested all tubes but it doesn't have a socket for the # 41 tube. can anyone recommend a tube tester I could use for that. I have looked on ebay and they have alot of testers but I don't know which ones can test those large 6 prong tubes. At this point I just hope those are both good in this radio as I have no way to test them. So would like to get one that can test these any suggestions?

Thank You
Bob
