I picked this magic eye cap tester up somewhere in the last year or two, and decided to restore it. I have a soft spot for these old magic eye tube testers, and they usually work pretty good. I replaced all the caps, tested the tubes, measured and replaced all resistors in need, and cleaned all of the pots and switches. It came to life nicely, and was very accurate. These all for electrolytic caps to be tested under voltage, so they're great for finding leaky caps. Here's a few photos and a video...
I've been in Amateur Radio since 1974, and still find new and interesting things to do. I like to build, restore, and operate on the air.
