9-pin breadboard / prototype tube socket PCB ONLY

PCB ONLY no socket hardware or terminal blocks! This little goody is a breadboarding or prototyping socket for 9-pin tubes (standard 9-pin miniature or noval tubes, like 12AX7, EL84, etc.) It allows you to make solderless connections to the tube, using screw / compression terminal blocks. Just stick the wire(s) in and tighten the screw. To change the circuit, just loosen the screw and pull out the wire(s). I use these for experimenting with tubes, and prototyping tube circuits. They can be screwed to an old-fashioned wooden breadboard or a metal chassis, using the four holes with pressed-in standoffs at the corners. The socket is a high-quality Belton socket… the terminal blocks are Phoenix Contact blocks that can accommodate wire sizes from 28AWG to 14AWG. Each tube socket pin is connected to two terminal strip positions. This allows for multiple connections and easy daisy-chaining of things like heater supplies. This auction is for one assembled PCB with socket and terminal blocks, as shown in the photos. Hand assembled in the USA! Flat rate shipping via FedEx to US destinations is shown.
