Test equipment list for Newbies
#1

I'm new the to the forum, couldn't find a introduction thread so I'll put it here. Active duty Navy in Virginia beach and is a former Aviation Electrician turned NFO. Been wanting to get into tube radios for sometime and finally found a nice Philco 46-1203 to get started. I was wondering what kind of test equipment would you guys consider essential for getting started and operating safely. Looking forward to learning and getting my tinker on!
