I don't have the manual right now because it is packed away.  Is there
supposed to be a jumper on the back on the accessory plug?  If so, it is not
there.

Thanks, Joe.

then traded it into Henry Amps in California and I bought it from one of the
workers there.

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.
