Jackson 648 tube testers

Anyone have any experience with the Jackson 648 tube testers? I am looking to test 6DJ8/6922/12AX7/6CA4/6SN7/7024/ tubes, etc. I read the recommendations on Hickok and B&K testers but there was no info on the Jackson tester. I want to get testing results and not spend to much on a tester. I see the Jackson testers for $100 with manuals and calibration instructions.

Thanks

I have 2 ...actually 3 testers.They are good enough to test those tubes mentioned above. As long as your 648 is calibrated.I checked and tested all of my tubes with my Jackson 648A.Hope this help.pescolar

I just came across an ebay listing for a calibration tube for the 648 tester. Not sure if you need one but If you are interested the listing number is 160828299076
Good luck.
