6H30 HELP
« on: 24 Mar 2012, 04:52 pm »
I have a B& K model 700 tube tester and no information on how to test 6H30 tube. Is there anyone who can suggest another socket with  setting to test on this model ?
Thanks for any help.

As there is no western equivalent to the Russian 6H30-Pi or DR, and even though it has the same pinouts as the 6DJ8 & 6CG7, you can't use those settings to test the 6H30.  You can setup for the pinouts by using those tubes but you will need to know the correct anode and cathode voltages and current settings plus your tester would need to have the capability to make those changes and judging from the picture I found on the web of that model it can't do that.  That tester came out in 1961 so I doubt the 6H30 existed then.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.  :(
