I have two of each, don't need them all. Prices include shipping (lower 48). Paypal ok. Please post interest / intent in this thread, I'll follow up with a pm (my box stays full)
First off, a General Radio Variac Auto Transformer - Type V5 0-135V - $old Esavinon
All the work is done for you, she is wired, inside a custom wooden case, with a 5 amp fuse, power switch, and two outlets on the front. If you mess with vintage tube gear you NEED THIS to bring those old caps up slowly and protect your tubes and transformers.
Second, a B&K Dyna-Quik Model 700 Dynamic Mutual Conductance Tube Tester -$old Face
This one does EVERYTHING. Case is in fair cosmetic condition, but is complete and closes / latches as it should. Tester itself is in good condition, and sold in full working order. I haven't had this particular one calibrated, but just doing a quick check against my other 700 (which has been calibrated) testing various 12ax7, 12at7 and 6l6 - the results were the same on both. A copy of the manual is included.
Cheers,
Russ

The B&K is a very respectable tester.

Does it do 6SN7's? If so, I'll take it."He who fights with monsters should look to it that he himself does not become a monster. And when you gaze long into an abyss the abyss also gazes into you." Friedrich Nietzsche

Sure does, socket 25 for 6SN7, set a couple dials, drop in the tube, let it come up, press and hold the button for the corresponding test. Yours until you say otherwise Face.
