Also includes the Tube Test Conditions book you will need to get the mutual conductance readings. E.g. if the tube test condition book has the Gm for a 6L6 to be 6800, and a 6L6 is measured on the 1234 and shows 75% on the 100 scale which is above the good/bad scale. 75% of 6800 is 5100, so the mutual conductance of the tube is 5100. This is all explained in the manual.
