If you use that kind of board with long wires attached they become antennas for noise pickup as well. Especially grid wires for the input tubes are extremely sensitive. You could use shielded wires of course to get around that problem.
I never thought too much about it. I only wanted to exemplify a kind of "adjustable adapter" which can be a useful tool for the tube roller.
By the way guys, in order to show my tube collection that I make no discrimination, I just bought a pair of gay tubes. Yes! My tubes can have what sexual orientation they like.
More exactly: a pair of 6L6GAY! Now the black or grey coated tubes which always tell me that I always prefer clear glass have nothing more to say. I hardly wait to receive them.
