Bring the tubes by my electronics shop in Meyerland any day during the week.  I have a tube tester, and even a couple buckets of old tubes in case one of your tubes fail testing.  73'sRodNK5Q Sent from Yahoo Mail on Android On Sat, Feb 17, 2024 at 14:23, mark roman via BVARC wrote:

Agreed, my experience as well from old tube TVs. Just want to make sure none are shorted before throwing the HV to it. Trying to limit smoke generation On Feb 17, 2024, at 1:40 PM, John Mechura via BVARC wrote:Absolutely, John P., if the checker says it is good, well, maybe.  If it says it is

John, There is a Collins S line group on Facebook and I believe they can give you the info you are looking for.  This would be better than lugging stuff around and fighting with low ballers.  MikeN5VCX On Saturday, February 17, 2024 at 12:56:44 PM CST, John Holmes via BVARC wrote:

Absolutely, John P., if the checker says it is good, well, maybe. If it says it is bad, as in shorted on the checker then believe it. However it is quite possible for a "weak" tube to still do yeoman's duty depending on the circuit. There was a time when I was fixing TVs that when it was

I think your best test is to put them in the rig and fire it up watching the output, the drive and maybe reading grid voltage stage to stage. From: BVARC On Behalf Of rodney martinez via BVARC Sent: Saturday, February 17, 2024 12:39 PM To: BRAZOS VALLEY AMATEUR RADIO CLUB Cc: rodney

[BVARC] Tube testing

I am currently restoring my old Heathkit HW-100. It was working the last use, around 1980 or so. Checking out resistors and changing electrolytics. I want to check the tubes. Anyone know if a vendor at the Hamfest can check them? Or know someone else that can?
