Default I-177 tube tester reads 2-3x to high on gm.

Well since I am boxing the loose tubes I have, guess I had better test
them! I have a military I-177 Made by Daven that sez that the gm of
the tubes is 3x higher than it should be. A 6K6 should be 1600 but I
read 4200!!! Pins the needle on the 3000 range and reads 4200 on the
6000 range. All known good tubes tested read high. I do not see a pot
or adjustable power resistor to change the calibration. Looked @ the
calibration info on the Hickok 600 series, but is too different to
apply to the I-177. Any ideas? Anyone have the calibration routine
for the I-177? The mil manuals I have found do not have a calibration
routine.

Thanks
Randy.
