FS: Hickok 752A tube tester

Archived from groups: rec.audio.pro (More info?)

Selling because I've acquired a KS-15784 L2 Cardmatic.

Condition is a very conservative Good or better. The case has the usual marks
and dings. The panel has shiny wear marks around a few of the dials but is
otherwise extremely clean, works very well and has been my preferred tester for
thorough checks. (I've been using less sophisticated testers to do Go/No Go
screening of batches of used tubes.)

A convenient feature of the 752A is that it can check the second section of a
tubes with two identical sections, like a 12AX7, just by pushing a button--no
change of settings is needed. The roll chart works fine. There is a mild "tick"
at a certain point in the rotation of the Bias control, as if a turn of the
resistance element (it's a wirewound control) is sticking up just a bit. It's
never been a problem, but I have a spare pot I will include. It's very hard to
find because it is unique to Hickok. A pin on one of the miniature tube sockets
could use tightening, but again it's never been a problem. I have full
documentation, with settings for obsolete tubes.

$400 plus shipping.
