I'm understanding much better at this level of explanation. I understand the electrical basics, in the general sense, and need to research more on how that translates to the older technology.

I do have a strong background in the use of lab a testing equipment. Results I can get, what they mean I may not have a clue yet.

I found a strong current about 20 years ago when working on a microwave. It wasn't a feeling I want to revisit.

I will be needing to pick up a few new tools.

Any recommendations for the variac? Or a reasonably priced tube tester?

Also, are there any other resources for the tech manuals? The one I see most referenced is SAM.
