December 6, 2023 - Continuing its tradition of creating wall calendars with a test equipment theme, Axiom Test Equipment just announced the availability of their year 2024 "Test Equipment Museum" calendar. In the past, Axiom's calendars juxtaposed an unrelated topic with various types of test equipment to result in a clever melding of the two. The 2022 "Top Hits" calendar used historic rock music bands. "Traveling Through Time," in 2023, references notable historical eras. Their approach on the "Test Equipment Museum" calendar for 2024 is a bit different in that for each month the creators present a modern piece of test equipment in contrast to a vintage version of the same type. For example the month of January has both a circa 1948 Associated Research Hypot Junior 412 instrument and a modern Associated Research 7804 Hypot model. That represents more than half a century technology evolution by the same company. Both were/are used to test the ability of electronic assemblies to withstand high voltage potentials without breaking down. Another example of a company's extensive history with the same product type is the April page with a 1964 era HP 851A Spectrum Analyzer and a modern Keysight N9020B Spectrum Analyzer. Keysight is the current incarnation of the former Hewlett Packard test equipment line (Agilent was an interim name). Axiom really reached back for the June exhibit by showing a 1920s-30s B-Battery Eliminator RT−40 high voltage direct current power supply. "B" batteries had a nominal output at 45 volts, and were were typically used with two in series to feed 90 Vdc into a voltage multiplier circuit to generate the +300 V bias for vacuum tube anodes. The counterpoise is a modern EA Elektro-Automatik ELR10200-420 Regenerative DC Electronic Load. August has a Heathkit IP−5220 Variable Isolated AC Supply as the vintage example. On each page there is a brief historical blurb along with photos. I checked and none of the yesteryear models of test equipment appearing on the left side of the pages are currently available for rent from Axiom ;-) However, some can still be found on eBay. Calendars -- 2022: "Top Hits," 2023: "Traveling Through Time," 2024: "Test Equipment Museum." Axiom
