owners of the jolida jd 502b, how you set the bias manually without losing all the skin on your hands? i'm lucky mine has the ez bias as well as the manual bias.
I own the JoLida 502B. It was my first introduction to tubes. It is manual bias. Just use a long handled screwdriver...haven't burned myself yet. A 5 minute job at most.
the bias pots are not the problem it's where you put the probes to do the measuremants. one guy said use gloves or i guess find a meter with probes as long as chop sticks.
oh...ok - gotcha - I picked up an inexpensive multimeter from Sears. Probes are 4-5" long or so. It does take a little care to get a stable connection and when moving them, but again - no burns yet (famous last words).
