Hi,

Do any of the list members have an acorn tube socket I could use to make 
an adapter?  I have a Heathkit TT-1A, but no way to test acorn tubes 
(like the 955 in my Measurements 59 GDO).  I've looked for quite a 
while, but the only acorn tube sockets I've seen were those in older 
tube testers.  I don't want to tear up a perfectly good tube tester just 
to scavenge the acorn socket.  Surely there's someone out there who has 
one that's been scavenged from some kind of old gear laying around 
collecting dust.  Please let me know offline if you have one that you 
can spare.

Thanks!
