Perhaps I am missing the point, but why would one use a VTVM instead of a modern DVM or 'scope (with 10X probe) for critical measurements?
Disclaimer... I will admit to keeping a working vintage Heath V-7a at my test bench, but it is a "nostalgia piece", as I built it when I was a kid. A matching (dark grey) Heath C-3 *does* get used, since it provides a function not found in modern equipment (leakage test at high voltages).
