I picked this up at the Santa Barbara hamfest on Sunday. It was a mess. The pointer was sticking, the power switch was bad, the thing didn't really work.

The guy wanted $10 but immediately came down to $5. I said sorry, only $2 and he took that.

After a couple of days of replacing capacitors, cleaning, and testing, it finally now seems to work perfectly. I don't need another audio voltmeter but I used to own one of these and it's a bit of memorabilia for me.

There is a calibration sticker on it, dated 1962. But the unit is much older, probably WW II surplus. It even uses neon bulbs for voltage regulation, while later versions used a VR tube.

looks cool i like old test equitment ,no matter what the feild its used in. test equitment is overlooked alot at sale's ,people go for the new and improved but like to use both and sometimes together, if you run across weired problems some older test can find it.
