Default Calibrating Your Hickok Tube Tester

In the August issue of AudioXpress there was a good artical about calibrating a Hickok 539 series tester. This info also applies to other Hickok models. As an owner of several Hickoks, I found it quite interesting. You can read and download it here:

The author has a website with links to the references used in the artical. Scroll down to click on the info. (Their server doesn't allow a direct link.)
