Is this an easy way to check leakage on a geranium trannie (assuming it works)?

Also an easy way to check gain?

Thanks,

No, but this one is:

The Super Cricket in the right hands will do everything but MAKE germanium transistors.

I would not part with mine; $34 is a real, true bargain if it works.

In response to the questions in the forum - PCB Layout for Musical Effects is available from The Book Patch. Search "PCB Layout" and it ought to appear.

This one looks like it has much the same capability as my germanium leakage tester, but boxed up with its own meter and switches.

The Cricket will do much more - including checking FETs.

Makes me really wish I had the manual for my Sencore TF17.
