Default Re: Neon Tester Screwdrivers

During my service career I used to clip a neon tester screwdriver to my top pocket but hanging outside. The constant glow reassured me that the Radar was poking out its usual power level though of course the magnetron whine told me that anyway. The neon glow is probably why I never had anybody come to see me in the Radar compartment. To think I used to sleep there nightly too for 18 months
