Hello All,

Yep, it is some hesitation that I offer my Hickok 750 to someone who can use it 
more often than me.  I purchased it from an estate, brought it up slowly on a 
Variac, and used it a few times on a limited number of tubes.  I then put it on 
the shelf thinking I would replace the tolex covering or maybe even build a new 
box for it.  Now that the New Year is here I need to face facts:  The hobby 
rooms needs an overhaul, I already have enough tube testers, and replacing 
tolex is very low on my priority list.

Based on a non-scientific comparison, the results from a 6L6GC comparison seem 
pretty good.  I tested one on my calibrated Hickok 752A and measured 4750 umhos 
(475 on the meter, then 10x based on the knob setting).  When I tested the same 
tube on the 750, set at the 6000 umhos scale, I got 4600.  

There is a 3-prong plug and the power cord is nice and flexible.  The plug, 
however, has a chip out of it.  There is a hard copy of the user manual and a 
partial copy of the roll chart.  Documentation is easily found via a web 
search.  The test panel itself is in good shape but the case is nothing to 
write home about.  I have not removed the chassis from the case as I have had 
no need to do so.

Pictures can be seen here:

Would $260 including pack/ship via UPS to CONUS be ok?  If I am way off base 
you can let me know.  

Best Regards,

William
