Hey everyone! I am excited for the new bulliten board!
Anyways, I bought a Sencore TC131 six months ago for $30, and soon recapped it a long with replacing any resistors that were out of spec.
But soon realized that this was the only Sencore unit without the tube setup information available on the Internet 😔
I’ve searched high and low… Even offered someone any amount they would ask for to take pictures of the unit they are selling on eBay, but they only responded with an offer to buy the whole unit they are selling.The tube information from any of the other Sencore units are not transferrable to the TC131 according to other owners, and what I have concluded.
Does anyone happen to have the same tube tester, and would you be able to send me a copy or pictures of the tube chart?!
Thank you for reading!
Maybe you could buy one off ebay, copy the charts and then resell it….just a thought
Hi, have you tried to contact the people from usaudiomart ? I just did a quick google and quickly found some pictures actually showing the unit and the lamp chart as well. Who knows…it is worth a try. Another thing…couldn’t you contact the person where you’ve purchased the unit in the first place, and ask ?
I have a “Sencore” tube tester somewhere, I will look to see what I have and I have what you need I could see if I can scan it.

@robotwizard I will most likely end up doing so soon if I do not find a copy
I’ve checked my stash and usual haunts with no results. You can try the Sencore group at groups.io. It’s not in the file area but perhaps someone can point you in the right direction. https://groups.io/g/SencoreOwnersGroup
We are still looking for the tester.@larry_n7luf sounds good! Thank you, Larry!
I had my wife put it in storage, but she has dementia and we have more that one storage places to look.

There’s a Sencore TC109 at this radio club site for auction you can see if you click on “catalog” . Looks like the tube chart is included..don’t know if the chart will work with your model or not

Sorry, just noticed the auction closed Oct of 2023

@ke8uyv-shawn I found my old tube tester.
Sadly I have the book for Sencore TC162 MIGHTY MITE V11 tube tester and TC28 HYBRIDE.
I could scan it if needed, but it is 150 Pages

@larry_n7luf Hello Larry. I’m sorry for not getting back to you sooner, but I’ve been very busy lately. I just ordered what may be a copy of the manual… so I might be in good hands now. No need to copy, but thank you for your time!
I have the sencore tc-131 manual and tube chart. I’m going out of town for the weekend, but give me a week to take pics, import to a word document and make a .pdf. I can email it to you if I have the address. If you want to Venmo me some cash once you get it feel free.
