Bought two vintage tube testers from the son of the original owner. Said he kept these around enough years, selling these and a couple vintage floor radios that has been in his family since he was small. This is a Hickok Model 6000 per the label. It says Micromho, Dynamic Mutual Conductance TUBE TESTER. Serial # on front of the case is 23414504. I see other auctions for a model 6000A but this is definitely a Model 6000 which was I believe an earlier model. Copied some info about the difference....Models 6000 and 6000A. These were the successors to the 600 series. The 6000 has sockets up to 9-pin mini. The 6000A does not have 4,5,7 pin older sockets, but it does have the 9 and 12 pin compactrons. These are nice compact testers and data is widely available. The fellow I bought it from said he is sure it works and that his father ran a radio repair shop someplace. I do not know how to test this. I plugged it in, when I turn the power knob from off to 125 ( which I assume is line voltage adjustment) the needle moves smoothly to the center area on the needle gauge and continues higher if I turn the knob a bit higher. There was an old small GM Delco Electron tube in the box ( will be included) and when I installed it and pushed the test button the needle swung towards "bad" for what that is worth. I would not conclude much from this since I am sure the other 12 knobs and dials would have some impact on a tube test?? I guess you get the idea that I know really nothing more about this tester beyond what I stated. The case is worn and tattered as the pictures show although the hinges, snaps, handle and S/N tag are intact. One could either re-cloth it or build a nice oak case I guess using this original hardware if so inclined. The cord has been folded inside the case for many years and is quite brittle. As soon as it is straightened I would guess it might fall to pieces and should be replaced. Someone has scratched/engraved their name below the "Hickok" name on the face...not real visible but it is there in a certain light. The rolling chart at the bottom seems to roll nicely and looks in great shape. I know this can be important on these since I read charts are hard to find if you need a replacement. Also all screws holding the face down are in place and tight, which I read if they are not then someone has opened it and saw it was not worth putting back together but these look good at a casual look. I am selling this unit AS IS..this means no returns or refunds, please. I will start the bidding at $.99 so please only pay what you think it is worth in its present "not fully serviced" condition. I try hard to not sell junk and my feedback is good. Shipping will have to be based on 20lb. from Florida zip 34608. It weighs between 16-17lbs. by itself and I will pad well and double-box for safe shipping. I will insure it for sale price. UPS Ground, please.
