Where to buy calibrated tube tester?

Ebay seems to be filled with Parts Only status tube testers.

I'm in NJ if that matters. Perhaps somebody knows somebody who could calibrate one if I were to find a working non-calibrated one.

Re: Has the Trainwreck stuff fallen from favour?

I think the parts are no longer available? Could be one of the reasons there’s less talk.

Re: OT for 183 build

That Mercury Magnetics will probably sound great. I personally, along with others, think that MM transformers have a little more high fi sound to them than other transformers e.g vintage or Heyboer.

Re: OT for 183 build

I had two Quinn SDQs. A mix between 183 and 102. I know one came with a Heyboer JCM800 output transformer.

FYI Quinn actually worked on the 183 (and built direct clones).

Re: PAYPAL Users Beware

FWIW, I had an issue with PayPal. Long story short, I had to file a BBB claim and I got my money. Long story long: I used my Paypal balance plus a credit card to pay for something. My PP balance was most of the payment amount. They took a 2.9% fee from the total amount. I called and the rep wasn’t h...

Re: Why Dumble cleans?

I'm with OP.
