Normally, is there a proper way of handling (installation & removal) tubes? I recall that when changing bulbs from high energy light bulbs (vehicle headlamps, flood lights etc) it is important not to touch the bulbs with your bare hands during installation as the oils from our fingers can cause damage to the glass when it operates. Does it apply for the tubes used in the MG Head (or any other tubed amps for that matter)? What 'technique' does the tube 'veterans' use here
.
Once the tubes are installed, is there any other general maintenance required? Like cleaning them should there be any dust particles on it.
Just in case this has already been discussed before, my apologies, please direct me to the appropriate link where applicable.
Thanks.
