hi craftsman, thanks so much for your reply, the info you provided is exactly what i needed. iam running a b@k 470 crt checker that i bought on ebay. i made up a universal socket for it, problem is the position of the crts in the light box is going to make it difficult to use. what iam going to do is unsolder the crt socket on the tube add jumper wires and use it to test. again thanks. pg
