(Attachment Link) Yikes I spend a couple of days away from the forum and when I logged in this morning I find 9 whole pages waiting for me so I'll have tp speed read them and catch up.As to the matter of a calibrator unit for 350.000 scovilles, then it springs to my mind that only a dragon could attest to its accuracy

@med, that really does look really nice, good job, keep this up and all of your TEA kit in your lab will soon be colour coordinated
The Radiomuseum agrees with that:
Nice device. Want one, too.

Go for it!! Even better if you cna pick it up locally - saves shipping $$, and less chance for damage enroute! (I'm waiting for an 8566B that's allegedly out for delivery, shipping set me back about a c note.)You know you want it!!! -Pat
