Default Re: Add a test for microphony to your valve tester

The test is not just for microphony but for other spurious noises, crackling etc. which do not necessarily show up on normal valve testers. A badly soldered lead-out wire on octal (and earlier) valve bases for instance is more readily picked up by this addition to a valve tester.
