Sorry for the overload!
"I know a few people who have private museums of vintage test equipment"
You must be talking about me.
EICO Model 950B AC bridge, EICO Model 324 RF signal generator, EICO Model 425 5" Push Pull Oscilloscope, EICO Model 232 VTVM, battery eliminator with volt, current and a variac to set it and several other EICO items. Most bought by saving lunch money in 7th > 12th grade, late 50s early 60s. Still have the instruction manuals and the construction manual for them!
Also have RCA Senior VoltOhmyst, Simpson Model 377, Triplett Model 666-R, and Triplett Model 310. A few other old meters laying around too.
Have several Fluke meters some that I have used from the early 70s. Oh and one TEK RM 45 to heat the house!
OK, back to this thread. If he is a true engineer he will appreciate quality equipment. You can'nt get better than Fluke!
If he would like an oscilloscope, for about $400.00 on Amazon you can get a Rigol DS1102E 100MHz Digital Oscilloscope. It is a very good scope for little money for a scope. I have had one for about 3 years and really like it.
