I don't know if this will help anyone, but I own two tube testers. If any of you folks need tubes tested and can't get it done locally, you are welcome to send them to me and I'll test and return them. All you need to do is pay the shipping. I know it's a pain in the butt to ship stuff like tubes, but there may be someone who is really in need of this...used to be that every supermarket had a tube tester by the checkstands, but now they're mighty scarce.
If you want to do this, just PM me or email me.
