Default Re: The "Sussex" Homebrew Valve Tester.

Good to hear your progress Neil.

re the Maplin yellow perils, yes, they're cheap as chips - sometimes on offer at two for a fiver. I've got them scattered all over the place, bought on impulse - in the car boots, garage, shed etc.

So cheap that they're cheaper than an analogue movement.

Neat idea to use the four set to the desired range and fixed into the lid.

Best of luck with your Sussex!

It will be interesting in due course to see the library of pictures of all the variations on a theme. The PCBs and custom transformer will be a boon to most constructors, I'm sure.

Regards,
