Re: A Vacuum Tube Curve Tracer for all Tek Semiconductor Curve Trace
Hi David,

Sorry for the confusion. I'm looking for plugs, not sockets. There are lots of sockets available in many different configurations. So far there are only two socket saver variations (9-pin and 8-pin) which I can disassemble to get the plug part. I'm still looking for a way to get a 7-pin plug so I can avoid making them by hand.

What you get is crude, and it takes a fair amount of time to do this. So this is hardly a reasonable solution except in a pinch. I was hoping for something that was much more professional and took far less time. I don't mind paying $10 for a plug that I can order from somewhere. be doing just fine. I haven't figured out which stuff is rare that I should jump at them whenever they show up versus the stuff that is still very common and still being produced. I'm new to the whole tube world. Last time I touched a vacuum tube was 40+ years ago until very recently. ------------------------------------ Posted by: David <davidwhess@gmail.com> ------------------------------------
