Yeah, I was reading about at least being able to check continuity on the filament pins with a multimeter. I'm still kinda reading up on tubes and then once I get a better understanding of different tube types and what types of tubes are in my tv (and radio) I'll then turn to tube testers so thank you for the tube tester suggestion. I do find particularly interesting the parallels between vacuum tubes and picture tubes (since I've worked quite a bit with the latter but not the former), which of course is understandable since a picture tube is just a specialized form of a vacuum tube. I just find this sort of old technology fascinating.
