[NJARC] What brand tube tester to buy?

Steve,
Your best bet is to find a working tube tester only because a non working tube tester can have a bad power transformer of a bad meter, both of which is almost a kiss of death unless you find a identical model parts unit to salvage the parts needed.

You don't need a Hickok tube tester for radio tubes, a good emissions tester will be fine for your needs. If you have the extra cash, then by all means purchase a Hickok, you can't go wrong.

Sal

I believe the Hickok is the best...correct.

What other brands should I consider for restoration work?

Should I consider getting a none-working tester ( less costly ) to bring 
back to life??

Tnx,
Steve T.
