Hi started to clean pins on valves as suggested, Just removed the 6A7 and when roatated end on end I can hear, please excuse the next description "tinkles!" is that normal,filaments rattling or is it the sign of my problem I do have a AVO 2 panel tester guess I will have to try it on that.

Just thought if it was broken then it would not be the type of problem i have it would be dead no sound at all
