[Test-Equipment] Identify antique test gear

[W0EOM at aol.com]

John  - the Perham collection here in San Jose has two early Fisher  metal 
detectors.  These consist of two wood boxes about 18 in sq, one in  front, 
and one in back, supported by two sticks.  Its like the 3rd from the  left on 
the Fisher web site.  I think it used tubes and batteries, with a  headset 
to hear the  'squeal'.
I don't know the model nos.

A friend  (I think) saw fit to give me three pieces of test gear. I would 
like to learn  the period of manufacture of the following gear, if you can 
remember it and  are familiar with it. About when was it made and in some 
cases what is it and  does it have any boatanchor utility for the ham with a lot 
of old tube type  gear.

1. Supreme 504 A "tester" appears to be a tube tester with roll  chart?

2. TS 532/U multimeter with MX815 multiplier kit. The name Mitch  is 
painted on its' face.

3. Fisher M-Scope made in Palo Alto, Ca.. Not  an oscilloscope. Has a meter 
on it and has instructions regarding   using it parallel to the earth and 
is said to have readings and  tone changes near metal and minerals, 

Just curious if any "old timers"  have encountered these pieces and if you 
know much about them. Please share  the info if you have any. Thanks and 73, 
John, K5PGW
