Pomona 1449 Tube Test Socket Adapter Tall 9-Pin Vacuum Blue Miniature

If you work on tube amps, radios or hi-fi gear, you know the trouble of probing a tube socket that is buried under the chassis. This tall 9-pin test adapter solves it. It plugs between a 9-pin miniature tube (12AX7 and similar types) and its socket and lifts every connection up to its own solder lug, so you can clip a meter or scope probe on each pin from above while the tube runs. Pomona Electronics is a long-standing name in test accessories, and this model 1449 is the tall 9-pin version that technicians and tube hobbyists still look for.
