productive day A very special 90s super bike has landed in my collection (more to come later about it) L3-3 has been repaired. R94 went open and caused many problems. Now fixed and working

Soviet precision and engineering. Испытатель ламп Л-3-3 (1975 l3-3 tube analyzer). Possibly made in Nizhny Novgorod? Can’t identify this particular factory. Works but doesn’t respond to the cal pots. No smoke shows either so no complaints

1959 HP 122A update. 3 months later mouser delivered parts so progress resumes. Need to rethink some things in regards to recapping. It has made its first measurement with some success I suppose…

Some very interesting tubes. Soviet 6p11s tubes. Supposedly a more ruggedized mil variant of the 6p6s (a 6v6). A tungsol 6v6 for comparison. These seem to have higher qc than the 6l6s that I had. No leakage or gas.

A good day for a ride w/ the norco range 6v6 analysis + a strange tag noting international research and development co ltd. Wonder what they were using this tester for Suspicious bike suspension
