Somebody actually bought it when it was new and never opened it, and then traded it into Henry Amps in California and I bought it from one of the workers there.

I then turned on the Heater switch and the tubes did not light up nor did I get any signs of life from them.On IC the meter shows no sign of life.  Obviously, without the tubes lighting up, I was not surprised.    Thinking that I had fried the tubes in the past, although I could not remember doing that, I ordered new tubes and put them in.  I flipped the switch and still no life.
