GR is nice stuff. I spotted a GR decade resistor box in the pile that I forgot I had when I was looking for the Leader distortion analyzer. It came in the house with me too. I picked up one of those retro looking GR sound level meters at an estate sale a couple of years ago, dirt cheap. I had seen them before, so I knew immediately what it was. You probably know it, the late 50s/early 60s hand-held model that used low voltage pencil tubes. All it needs are some brass accents to be steampunk. Other than some battery corrosion in the bottom, it is as pristine inside as something of that age can be. I rigged some power to it and it works FB, and I suspect it is still fairly close in calibration. It's just too cool not to keep and show off proudly. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
