[goraman]

Is the Hickok tube tester 532 a good one as it seems to be the lowest modle number.Dose it test fewer tubes of run less tests?
I am getting one tomarrow and don't know anything about it.:scratch2:

[goraman]

will this thing test 12AT7,12AX7,6414 and EL84's?

Hickoks are good testers and worth owning. I have a 532 and I believe it will test most anything. You may have to track down the settings for newer tubes.

You can learn all about Hickoks here.

I can't belive this thing is from 1947 .It didn't come with a book so I guess I'll have to ask alot of stupid questions. All my tubes fit in one 9 pin socket. All I need to test is the 12AT7,12AX7,6114 and the EL84.
