Re: What I thought to be a bad tube suddenly works & a couple ?s

I would recommend you return it. Some tubes have bad contacts inside, transit shocks and just friday afternoon manufacturing can often be the cause. Thing is with tubes. if it goes it may or may not take out some other parts with it. So can be expensive to risk it.

NOS is great if it works and is in good condition. But who knows what has happened to the tubes? maybe they were in a Huey flying round some jungle for a couple of months, or sat in some damp bunker for 4 years. Crazy shit happens.
