We do not have any markets like the here. Nice work Vern 😀
Sometimes a good heavy level of filth protects the item as it ages and it doesn't get faded, looks really good after you clean it up. Maybe it got filthy early on, and then the dirt/dust/filth protected it all those years, that thing looks brand new. Beautiful piece of equipment too. I find this on the pinball machines we fix, if it's really filthy that mainly means it hasn't been used in years, so often once it's cleaned up it's still in very nice shape. Very counter intuitive!
Going to miss you while you're gone Vern! Safe travels! 73 - Dino KLØS
Thanks Dino, always nice to hear from you.
Nice finds and you are so correct on some things are worth bringing home just for parts.. That Heathkit sounds like a Motorola scope that I have on my bench. That came out of a coal mine electronics shop and was full of that type of dust. Gratz on your new finds !!!!
Hi Jamie, it was so nasty I was sure it couldn't possibly work. Trying to imagine how bad a coalmine scope must have been.😆
Great scores Vern. Anything made by Supreme Test Instruments Inc. is a great vintage piece of equipment to have! I have
their model 571 signal generator which came in a wood cabinet like the one my grandfather had but mine has the special
plug- in harness for the device ( he didn't have that). I also have a schematic which he also did not have. I guess he didn't
know how to get two individual leads to connect to it. After he passed my mom sold it for $10. I paid quite a bit more for mine earlier this year.
That 571 is an interesting unit. I have never seen a signal generator in a wooden enclosure before. (Unless you count the Signal Corps Frequency meters). Was this unit made during the War? Would make sense as there was a shortage of steel and aluminum. I had a Supreme tube tester a while back. Was in good cosmetic condition but had been thoroughly molested internally. Passed it on to someone who needed the meter and face plate. Thanks for stopping by.
@@theradiomechanic9625 I believe it was from 1935 0r 1936. When you remove the
wooden sides you will find it completely enclosed in a metal box! The front is all metal too making this a very heavy little unit.
You scored well! I had two inside tables. The turnout was fair to good and I had a few nice sales despite the wet weather.
While it is a small event, they always seem to have a good selection. Always seem to find something at one of their events.
I was very sad to learn at around 9am Saturday morning that the event was happening that day. I completely missed it! Going to have to put it on my calendar for next year!
On another note, you have now convinced me to look around for a tube analyzer.
Sorry you missed it, but the one October 13 and 14 is much bigger.
@@theradiomechanic9625 Alas I will be in Florida and will miss NEAR-fest as well =(
@@derstrom8 don't know when you're returning, but there's one in May. Just check the website.
@@theradiomechanic9625 I will definitely be at NEAR-Fest in the Spring!
