Vintage Test Equipment plus a Hi Z mic For Sale:

.

Audio and RF Signal Generators

.

RCA WA-44 C, Signal Generator For Sale:

The RCA WA-44 C is a signal generator that
produces sine and square waves in a frequency
range from 20 Hz to 200 KHz, which means
it covers the entire audio range.  It is not
an RF generator.

This one works OK and looks OK, especially
considering its age.  Buy it for only $25

.

Paco G-30 RF Signal Generator For Sale:

The Paco G-30 is a vintage RF Signal Generator
that covers from 160 KHz thru 240 MHz in 8
ranges. It uses two tubes, and is 1957 vintage.

It has regular RF, Internally modulated RF,
Externally modulated RF, and Audio output.

There are two main outputs. One is a single pin
Amphenol connector as was typical in that era.
Cable included. The other is a standard BNC
connector.

This one seems to work fine, and looks OK
also, especially considering it is about 60
years old.

Buy it with manual and cable for only $50

.

Biddle Model 21159 "Megger":

The Biddle "Megger" is a vintage instrument
used to measure very high resistances, and
to do things like check the vacuum in tubes.

This unit uses a hand crank generator to
produce high voltages used in the testing.

This particular unit also has an actual Biddle
leather case, with felt internal padding.
As far as I can tell, it is real leather.
There are even some cards labeled "Insulation
Resistance Test Record" with a note that it
measures up to 2000 Megaohms.

Additional paper work is also included.
Buy this vintage unit for only $75.

.

Shure 404 C Hand Microphone:

The Shure 404 C is a high impedance hand
microphone that uses a R5F Controlled Magnetic
cartridge.  It has a nice coiled cord terminated
with a 1/4 inch stereo plug.

Controlled Magnetic Cartridge
Small, light and compact case
Extremely sturdy, high impact, ARMO-DURB case

nice.  The coiled cord is in great shape and has
not been stretched.

I also have many other accessories available such as many
different types of microphones, HTs, VHF and UHF rigs, HF
and VHF/UHF antennas, connectors, miscellaneous accessories,
etc.
