Great VTVM

Hi Eric,
I got that VTVM from my mom in the very late 60's when I just got into electronics. (arrg, that was a while ago) and still have it. I have seen (and worked on) just as good VTVM's in the past, some a bit smaller, but it has a real nice large display and I always loved it. I think RCA has an old pro version as well that has a big meter. This was when shack did great stuff for us hobbyists. Enclosed is the schematic in case you need it (just scanned it in today!). The probe just had a 1 meg resistor inline on the probe handle. I rebuilt mine with a nice BNC as many here have done it seems.

Why?? lost the old one as well....

Go figure I still have the original other two. But better in the long run.. it was easy to modify.

Sorry you had a crack on the switch tho. I would try a find a dead one somehow.. ya cant beat that high impedance even with new DVM's!
