Just stuck a voltmeter in the same wall socket I have my computer plugged into, and it reads 121.3. I've heard from several people in my area that voltage 'peaks' (or is that 'spikes'?) here often, which in the past has caused damage to certain fragile appliances, and has even blown street lights, etc.

If that's the case, what pre-cautions should I be taking with my tube radio sets? What is a good rating for the protective inline fuse?
