![]() In fact, the Shunt control was named “English” on older models. The setup chart configuration for the Shunt control gives “Good-Bad” readings, which were previously called the “English” readings in older Hickok testers. ![]() This system allowed easy replacement of worn out sockets - the customer simply purchased a new panel from Hickok. One panel has an older compliment of sockets (4-pin through 9-pin-miniature sockets) the other panel has a newer socket compliment (compactron & novar sockets instead of the antique sockets). The 6000 series also has a replaceable socket panel. The compact size of the 6000 is a welcome asset to any technician’s workbench because space is always at a premium. The 6000 series in the 2.5 vac signal voltage group. Otherwise, most Hickok’s are remarkably alike (except for the really expensive models such as 539C or 752…). Most Hickok tube testers fall in two categories: those that use a 5 vac signal voltage and those that use a 2.5 vac signal voltage. Hickok 6000 series is a compact mutual conductance tube tester. Copyrighted by Bob Putnak, all rights reserved. Serious electrical voltages are present, repairs should only be attempted by a qualified technician. Models 6000A and 6005 are the same with only minor feature differences that are not relevant to tube test calibration, therefore the discussion is applicable to those models as well. This article discusses repair and calibration of the Hickok 6000 tube tester.
