Ok, this may seem like a duh to some, but on my B&K Dyna-jet tube 
tester, the meter is scaled numerically from 1-120 but I have no idea 
what the reference quantity means. The REPLACE-REJECT-GOOD markings 
are not too much for my small brain. I know this is a mutual 
conductance tester and I know what that means but have no idea how 
this scale translates to that.

Another unknown is regarding dual section tubes. The chart shows a 
test 1 and test 2 but no reference in the manual as to which section 
of the tube is which.

Please enlighten me.

Thanks and 73, Dick KF4NS
