I see a mud path out to my storage building so I'm going to bring in the tube tester for some cleaning and testing. It's going up for sale and the proceeds are going in my C-10 Square Body fund. I guess I'll sell the big box of tubes with it. I thought I had some pics of it but I can't find them. Guess I better get it in here for some before/after pics. One of the guys over on AK has one that is all cleaned and serviced and they are supposed to be great Tube Testers. Until I get my pics up in the next couple days, here is a pic of his just to give you an idea as to what they look like. I'll delete it when I get it in the shop. Looks like some scrubbing and some cleaning of switches. I think there are 2 tubes inside (one 83 rectifier tube and one 5Y3GT rectifier tube) which I do believe I have new ones sitting here for it. Never had one apart.
