Re: Test equipment for valve radio repair
Just a passing thought......A valve signal generator might be a better bet than a solid state one when working with valves, as a slip of the probe could result in damage to a transistor type, whereas a valve sig genny would just "hold its nose" if a couple of hundred volts was momentarily applied to the output socket. A D.C. blocking capacitor does not necessarily get round this problem, as a cap. has to charge up. causing at least a momentary voltage surge . Usually enough!.
