I know there was a 5061B listed on Fleabay a couple times and never sold (I think I even saw it on Craigslist)...
It's located in Houston, TX... IIRC their offices are relatively close to me, I would be more than willing to drive down there and test out this unit and report back any numbers / information (as long as someone gives me step-by-step info). If it works you might be able to work out a deal, if the tube is dead then maybe you can negotiate a reasonable price. http://cgi.ebay.com/Agilent-HP-5061B-Cesium-Beam-List-Price-35000-/320601091689 I'm not associated with the seller at all.. I just remember this being listed and that it was local (I was halfway tempted to buy it myself but I really don't need to be spending the money).
