In my town there was a Mercury tube tester about the size of a small coffee table with a whole bunch of tube sockets on the top at the "five and dime". You would find the socket that corresponds to your tube stick the tube in and push the test button. Underneath was a locked cabinet which if you were lucky had a replacement tube for you. Those were the good old days. cheers, Dak
