I also got my 20 pin socket from OETECH where John Folsom got his. I ordered some old RCA phoatomultiplier tubes for the male end and they also had a Female socket. Cost was about $80


I did a search and found this company. http://lancosockets.com/

It looks like Lanco has sockets for some 20 pin PMTs but I do not know if they are the same as the one on the 15GP22 There is a diagram on the Lanco site of the 20 pin socket they offer. You will have to figure out if it is the same as the 15G base.

Good Luck

Question time for Bob: so if you knew you could get new bases, why go through all that trouble to reuse the original socket when rebuilding a 15G? Only thing I can think of is originality, am I right?

Just seemed simpler to salvage the original bases. Once I figured out an easy method, it was a no brainer. And the cost is zero dollars too.

Sockets are a different story all together. Next to impossible to find 20 pin sockets.
