Well, I never had those fancy tube sockets.... I use to take 30 Gage wire & wrap it
around each tube pin I wanted to measure something on, then plug the tube back in
and I had access to whatever I needed on that tube....

But it would be best if you had a nice little bench you could put the chassis on, flipped
like that and make all your measurements....

Just build one, it's not like it's going to add significantly to the time it's taking to get
this tv working anyway..... And with all you spent on caps, precision resistors, tubes,
diodes, & thermisters, flyback transformers, you cudda just took out all that stuff and
put a flat screen in it already..... So just build a nice chassis table, put some movable
arms on it, mount a few lights, do it up nice!

Oh, and don't forget add one or two cupholders.....
