5 pin tube tester

Does anyone know a brand of tube tester that would test a 5 pin tube? I would prefer to get by as cheap as possible. I bought a bunch of tubes and have come across some that my tester was not designed for. One tube I'm particulaly interested in testing is a 2E22. I also have 6 pin tubes that do not appear in my tube measurement guide. Such as a OD3W. Very interesting tube! I would be curious to know what it was ( can be ) used for.

Herman,

Some tubes have marks but most of what is in question has nothing. These look to be of the pre amp type.

I have many large tubes thought that I can read the numbers but am not able to test on my tester. But for now I will wait until I decide if I'm going to pursue the tube quest further. I orginally bought this mess of tubes becuase of a couple that I wanted. They came very cheap. Some of these are really cool looking. To bad I can't find a use for them.

Some body sent me a e-mail expressing an interest in some of these tubes. However I misplaced the e-mail. If you want you can write me again and I will send you a list of variuos tubes.
