Hi Guys,
I am getting too old to be sticking my hand into 500-volt electronics...lol I want to sell off all the stuff I have acquired over the years.
I have a working Navy tube tester that I have used for the last 10 without issue.
The TV-10 is not a very well known tube tester, they were made for the Navy to replace the TV-3's.
There just weren't very many of them made. It is basically an upscale version of the ever popular TV-7.
Makes the TV-7's look like a toy.
Like most other US military tube testers, the TV-10 is a mutual transconductance tester using the Hickok circuit.
Uses the same Data as the TV-3's
The TV-10 reads the mutual transconductance directly on the meter in micromhos while the TV-7 only reads a relative number on it's meter.
If you are looking for one of these, you likely don't need me to tell you what it is or does.
I will consider all reasonable offers. I will also post some photos of new JJ Tubes for sale so that you can make offers. They came from EuroTubes, who supplied me with tubes to build tube guitar amps.
Thanks,
Billy

A coworker always talks about going to some widow's garage sale and him buying a Bridgeport Milling Machine for $100. So, I don't want to low-ball or insult you, don't think you're a widow who doesn't know the value of her former husbands tools/equipment.
Can you give me an idea of how much you want for tubes and tube tester?

Ebay list this sort of device for TV10D/U at $1395 It was the last model made. A TV10-A/U, the first one made in the TV 10 type for $900.
I would take $600 and ask you to pay the shipping or pick it up in Sebring, Florida. We would need to do a video call so you can see it working and know just what you were buying.
As for the tubes, they are all new, and I would take half of what Eurotubes.com is advertising them for. I can test some of them in a live amp for you. Any tube that fails on arrival, I will just refund you your money without question. That is the same deal Eurotubes gives me on failed tubes.
I also have a lot of resistors, capacitors, and normal tube components, including finished amps and prototype amps.
Send me a direct message and I will give you my cell phone number.
Thanks,
Billy
