Mike and others,

Being rather a nut about General Radio stuff, and old test equipment  
in general, I noticed in that web page photo captioned "Ted Hunter  
with a PTO" some familiar things behind him.  At the rear I can  
identify the Boonton 160 Q meter, predecessor to the more well known  
260 Q meter.  But the Slope fronted, wood cased thing nearer to him, I  
think, is a rather old General Radio bridge, the predecessor to the  
650A perhaps.

Can anyone say for sure?

Roy
