TA,

As you said....Hickok 600.

BTW 600 for me is a bit more preferred vs 600A, it tests some old tubes 600A does not...or so I think.

I got lucky - I got mine on eBay for a decent price calibrated, and when using calibrated tubes it was right there (when I eventually figured how to use it thanks to you guys).
