Jerry.
Thanks for the tips. I have a trip to the hardware store in my future.
My GDO lives again. I also feel better about my knight-kit tube
tester that has a place of honor on the shelf in my shop. It called the
tube as shorted and way low on emission when I tested the 6af4a (made by
RCA for Eico....those were the days HI.)
