I was once very familiar with this handy little meter and know nearly its complete history. This was once an essential part of any professional Closed Circuit Television and Master Antenna Television installer's and service man's gear. It was used regularly right up to the time the contractor closed his doors for good.
This meter has no case cracks, stress marks, meter panel damage, broken knobs, broken switches, or damage of any kind. It has never needed repair and has never been damaged. It is in EXCELLENT CONDITION.
This is an older test meter for the broadcast and closed circuit television industry. Those unfamiliar with the differences of broadcast and cable television should know the difference in their signal frequencies if intending to use this unit for CATV signal strength measurement. For example, this meter CAN measure CATV signal strength when CATV channels and VHF/UHF Channel frequencies are identical such as in HRC cable systems (most common). HRC cable channel 2 through 13 frequencies are the same as VHF signal frequencies 2 through 13 for example.
Not all cable television providers use the same cable system but the UHF and VHF frequencies are standard.
Sadelco is an extremely well respected name in the field and this item is proudly made in New Jersey, USA!
