Bias adjustment

I need to set the bias on my vacuum tube amplifier.  Does anyone know where I can BUY an amp meter that reads milliamps?  Most I have seen are for large AMP applications.

Check out the VHT Bias tool....   sold at music stores.  It has two sockets and dual mA meters.

Thank you. If I may be so bold as to ask what is a VHT bias?  And why does it have sockets? Don't I need only two leads from the meter to the bias connector [jack] on the amplifier? I'll check it out anyway. Any and all info will be greatly appreciated.

@ richfrank

I assume you still have the Cary SLI-80

See page 12. It appears all you need is a plug and of course a multimeter.
