Thanks Sam. When you say solder the pins on the uu6, do you simply mean re-tin them and hope it makes contact? Will I need to remove the base? Luckily Graham has an 6P25 on its way to me but I still have no luck with a uu6. I would like to put it back to original with a working UU6. They command eye watering prices. I could try the diodes for now just to get it up and running and on test. It's a Christmas present for my friends 'Great Hall' as I call it. It will be given a home and be well used and loved there.
Dave.
