Sencore TC136 Mighty Mite IV 60's American Tube Tester

* Stoked that I finally own a tube tester: the Sencore TC136 Mighty Mite IV , US made, 60's, in a very decent condition.

It will need a little usual maintenance (cap changes mostly, given the age),and some adjustments, but works as it should.

Cool stuff!
