Wall Voltage and Tube testers Question

Tubes Asylum

Questions about tubes and gear that glows. FAQ

Hello,
Need opinions please.
I just moved to another state. In calibrating my 539C's,in old residence the wall voltage was 122. In the new residence wall voltage is 115. This tester was originally set-up for 115 (sticker on the front and in factory cal instructions).
I want to a complete cal on it, but am wondering as to what tweaking to do. I sell some tubes from time to time and want to make sure that anything going to a customer is as accurate as possible.
I'm thinking that tubes measured on a 115 vac tester will give transconductance readings on the low side and if someone runs those in an amp set-up at 120+ volts it should be OK.
Thoughts? or am I just getting too concerned over "small potatoes"?
Thanks,
jstrm
