Hello all,
Sometime ago I purchased a few of these little tube socket boards for some tube sockets that I'm using that have pins rather than loops on the component side. The boards looked like they might make things just a little cleaner when wiring up. Something made me stop and have a long look and unless my old age is catching up to me, the pinout on these little boards seems backwards to me.
If I install them facing out so that I can see the pin numbers, they appear to me to be backwards from the tube pins. Am I letting my old mind play tricks on me or am I possibly missing something here? I've never used these products before so perhaps, my application is incorrect. I surely hope that I don't end up making a fool of myself for asking.
