cardmatic tube tester question
Hi, I am selling the NOS set of Western Electric cardmatic cards on ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...tem=2549994916 my question is, I know these cards work in models: Hickok 1234, Western Electric KS-15874 L1/L2, and the military USM-118 A/B series, but will they work in other cardmatic models, such as Hickok 123A or 123R or others ?? thanks, azcowboy |

I have a KS-15874-L2 but the card set I have is marked Hickok 123. There is
only 1 card for 12AX7 and the other 12**7 tubes and they only say card 1 on them, not 1 of 2. The tester seems to work with these cards. On the card case it states" Model 120 card case" RD instruments. "Chris Haedt" wrote in message om... "arizona cowboy" el34deletethispartATcomcast.net wrote in message ...

So, for example, it takes two cards to test a 12AX7 in a 123, but just one card in the KS/118. So--really the cards you have are good for the KS/118 only. |
