Best forum ever! Is there any question that can't be answered in here?

Just thought of another unanswerable question, "Which is better, PDK or manual?"

But wait, there's more unanswerable. "How can I tell if my rear spoiler is deployed while I'm driving"? Remember that one? Almost started a Rennlist civil war several years ago, and ended with at least one member being banned forever from the forum.

Can I use my new multimeter to help? I can really use a project now and this may be the ticket!

Thanx.... I dropped them off last week at a guitar amp repair guy local... he called and found four bad 6650s out of 16. Yes, that is 8 6550s per amp. All are Russian Winged C.... I hadn't realized these are going for $150 each on the 'net !!!! He said if I am going to be owning these, I should have my own tester.

I have about 32 more spare 6550... all variations of the Svetlana/Russian tubes.

I keep saying I have had it with these tubes.... constant fussing.... biasing monthly with my multimeter... burning my fingers..... straining my back.... I suspect I can sell all these tubes and buy a nice solid state amp. But then I fire up these VTL 300 Deluxes and the sound is just fantastic. Best I have heard.
