Whats a good tube tester?

I have several "better" testers, but my go-to for shorts & emission is an Accurate 257. Easy to use, tests most tubes and even some older CRTs and won't break the bank to purchase.

I have one of those too, and my sentiments agree with yours on being quick and easy to just do a go or no-go check on a tube.
