[Test-Equipment] Wanted: TS-710/TSM Crystal Impedance Meter, Good or Parts

[WA5CAB at cs.com]

Dino,

I pretty much quit working on anything SS when I lost my last corporate 
karate battle and got laid off in 1999.  I have (and use) the TS-330 and TS-683 
and would rather have the TS-710 to match.

But thanks for the references.
