If you plan to work on more TVs in the future a tube tester might be more economical that replacing all the tubes at the start. Also that way you don't throw out tubes that may have worked fine in the TV.
The forum will be here when you get back.

Water up there is in the high 50s. It'll be Land Sharks I'll need to be careful of!
A tube tester is on my wish list...absolutely and I love these old TVs from the late 40s and early 50s. They are built like tanks!
