RE: Servicing a Tube Tester




Michael is right. Either of those testers, and several others (Triplett), would be well worth the money to have rehabilitated, even if it cost most than buying another. You'd be taking the risk that the one you buy from eBay or another source will also need to be serviced to make it operate correctly. In the past year, I've sent two 539Bs to our local fellow who knows his sheep, and I'm almost funded up to give him my 539A. An Asylum member has my TT-1 and has been poking into that to bring it back to correct working order, so I can then sell it to him for some stupidly outrageous amount :P .
