Tube tester recommendation!


Is there an inexpensive (but accurate) tube tester that one can buy? Here on Agon sometimes? Through a merchant? Amazon? Ebay?

Tubes can be expensive and I want to get every bit I can from them but once they begin to go I'd like to have the means to validate that (sometimes I think my hearing may be the issue :-))

Thank you!

Not infrequently Hickok tube testers appear for sale for reasonable prices at forums and sites which serve the antique radio collecting community. For example, this listing offering a model 534 for $325 appeared just three days ago, although as you can see in the subject line the unit has already been sold.

Periodically Googling "antique radios" + "Hickok" + "tube tester" could very well pay off, eventually if not sooner!
