I have decided to add a few more items of test gear which do not, or did not cost the world.
First is my picture tube tester/rejuvinator. When colour TV came to Australia, technicians wanted Colour Tube Testers, and the old B&W testers could be bought second hand cheaply. I converted this one to work with colour tubes as well as B&W. See the added switch, and the D socket added to the panel.
I made my own adapters to suit various tube types.
Next is my H.V. Probe. I extended the end of the probe to more easily slip under the ultor cap. This probe was bought from the local electronic enthusiasts shop. Coming from a hobby shop, it did not cost the earth.
My Signal Generator. Leader model LSG 11 these were very good sellers. Everyone seemed to have one. I think there was a model LSG 8 and LSG10 but the LSG 11 had the most features. My boss used to align television I.F.'s with one. It is easy when shown how. I have a sweep,marker generator that I have never used.
My colour bar generator. It took me years to get one of these second hand.
Lastly, this is a little monitor that I use at work when installing and adjusting cameras. It is worn on the wrist as can be seen and it looks like a Dick Tracy watch. It is much safer using this when up a ladder than what I used previously. The final two pictures will follow shortly.
