Years ago, in another life, I worked in radio. There was a small test
set that measured RF so that the station engineers could tell the
contours still matched the promise of performance. Can't remember what
they were called and who manufactured them. Anybody?

They were in a beige case with a meter on the front and were fairly BIG $.


Potomac Instruments FIM series were that color. The earlier ones went
under their name and Nems Clarke, RCA, Vitro?, maybe some others. They
were good radios. Still have two of them around somewhere.
