[NJARC] What brand tube tester to buy?

[sgt88 at atlanticbb.net]

Thinking 'bout it some more...would also want to check my Ham xmtr 
tubes...like 6146, 807 etc...that may limit my choices.

So...the question is: how would I know if the tester can do these?...if I 
can't find the manual online or if the seller has no manual??
