I picked up a Triplett 3444-a tube tester it did not have roll chart holder or tube chart in it. I bought a book off ebay that shows operation and has tube chart but quite a few tubes not listed like 8950. Any opinions on this tester? The GM kob also does not zero but tester does work but so different than my Sencore.
 

Never owned a Triplett tube tester. It was a legitimate brand name for meters and test gear back in the day.

Most testers will check a 8950 if you use the listed setup for type 6KD6 but with the heater supply voltage set for 13.5 Volts.

That's all the 8950 is on the inside.

If you have not found the information you need, email me, I have both the 3444A type 1 and 2. Best testers available without going full blown lab instruments. surveyor.ron@gmail.com

    Hello gentlemen and Ladies. I have the dreaded RCI-2990 receive issue where my radio gets distorted when people get close to my location. I found the C90 Capacitor, but I can not for the life of me find the C89 capacitor. Can or does anyone have a picture of the exact location of C89 ? Thank you in advance, Wes
