Testing 6DJ8 tubes on EICO 667 tube tester.

[Rumble]

I need to test some 6DJ8 tubes, but the tube charts for my EICO 667 doesn't have any listings for that type of tube. Is there some other tube listing that interchanges with a 6DJ8? If not, any other suggestions (other than buying another tester, LOL). Thanks.

6BK7 / 6BQ7 is same pinout - don't know how it will test in comparison, though... If you have some new ones you can set a baseline.

fil = 6.3
gr = 50
pl = 50
levers = 6662145 111111
v = 2
s = 2
leak = 6-7-8
merit = 6


fil = 6.3
gr = 50
pl = 50
levers = 4512166 611111
v = 2
s = 2
leak = 1-2-3(with bar on top)
merit = 1

Thanks a bunch Bob, I'll go give this a try.

Tubes tested fine. So I was stumped as to what the problem was (scratchy/static, wouldn't balance/bias correctly). Turns out the pins and sockets needed cleaning. Glad I didn't toss the tubes!
