Troubleshooting

Most problems will be traced to defective vacuum tubes. However, if normal tests do not eas- ily reveal the problem, feel free to call the factory for assistance. If you lack access to a qual- ified service technician with vacuum tube equipment repair experience, you may return the VT-15 to the factory for repair. Call first, however, for shipping information.
