Yes Randy is correct. The Tube dealers LOVE people who tune up with a Brick on the Key. Kills your Tubes much faster. Plus you get a much more accurate tuneup by sending dots than you do with a solid tone. It duplicates your actual transmissions using dots rather than solid tone. Its really easy to do guys. Just set your coffee cup against the paddles making dots and turn the knobs on your amp.
