Yes Randy is correct. The Tube dealers LOVE people who tune up with a
Brick on the Key. Kills your Tubes much faster. Plus you get a much more
accurate tuneup by sending dots than you do with a solid tone. It duplicates
your actual transmissions using dots rather than solid tone.
Its really easy to do guys. Just set your coffee cup against the paddles
making dots and turn the knobs on your amp.
