[FARC] Fw: Need Help with Tube Testing on my Ranger II

[Phil Stalnaker]

Jeff and David
I have two or three tube checkers. Not sure if they cover the tubes in the 
unit you speak of, would be happy to test them if they are covered in the 
docs. High power tubes in the final generally do not test on most tube 
checkers but some of the old ones may be tested. Let me know what you have 
and I will check to see if they will test or not on my checkers..
