Default Oldtimer question (valves/tubes)

In article , says...

It breaks my heart to do this, but I think it's a junker. On further
inspection some screwdriver jockey's ****ed around with it and since I
only paid a fiver for it, it's time to consign it to recycling.


The computer museum at Bletchley Park has (or had) a valve re-cycling
exchange. I bequeathed (or dumped) my father's collection of valves and
his (Taylor?) big wooden-cased valve tester to them and they made
appropriate gratitude noises...
