As of the year 2020 there was
an estimated 7.8
billion people in the world. Most of them, thanks to the technology invented
and provided by capitalist societies, have some form of Internet access. A large
fraction of them have paid nothing for it (while hating those who provided it) - I'm
just sayin'. Out of those 7.8B people, surely a handful have already or will in
the future search the World Wide Web (WWW) in pursuit of information on vintage test equipment,
either as fodder for some publication, for reference in obtaining particular
models or for service data. In the interest of those folks, I go to the trouble
of scanning and posting content like this test equipment advertisement by
Superior Instruments (aka SICO). It appeared in a 1939 issue of Radio News magazine. You're
welcome.
Here is a page with an incredibly well-preserved
TV11 Tube Tester. Here is a
Model 1240 Tube Tester, as seen in the ad.
