Some nice kit in there. If I had the space to put it it would be worth a Road Trip.

There are three (possibly four) HP 8600A digital markers in that lot  :o, they rarely ever turn up for sale, quite a few people with 8601A sweepers want them.
The two counters are the 5248L & 5245M, didn't Vince want one of those, also included in one is the digital voltmeter plug-in, last two sold in Germany went for over 100Euro each.

No... he's been off the RADAR for over a year now that I know of. Got a feeling he went to school, got a life, didn't have time for us old fuddies any more. ;)



How 'bout it Tony... you ready to be our new TEA BLIND poster child...?  :-DD

Maybe all of the Canadian members here should pass around the hat and buy Rogers whatever test equipment they need to get the cell network back up and running!  Holy cow.

Same here, I would already be on my way.  :-DD

Corrected that for you.

Hope the lot doesn't end up with that German ePay seller with the parted out resistor boxes from the other day. Guarantee all that vintage HP would end up in bits if they bought it.

Finaly took the time to fix the 'cooky' problem i get keeping logged out and not able to track what page i was on in TEA.
Fixed..think the cooky back dropped and creacked some of the coockies...

but Fixed now and i can now worry about catching up again  :-DD

I think we lost Vince because this moves too fast ...  :(
Vince will be back but for now he's having too much fun in his own newly found rabbit hole.......fixing CD players !
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/vintage-cd-player-repair-philips-cd-371-aka-radiola-cd-1371/

He's getting some great knowledge passed on from Gyro and shakalnokturn whom are apparently quite experienced in venturing into that abyss.  :scared:

Some stuff seen @ Siglent HQ cannot be shared.

Oh Jeebus... I cannae tell you how many similar units I've gotten in pallet/big box lots over the decades and shifted straight away to the flea market or worse, straight to the tip.  :palm:

There was just no profit in 'em at the time; what with 5-disc DVD-players and umpty-hundred-disc carousels on the shelf at Best Buy... :-//
