i use a fluke 79,but do have a simpson 260 on hand. it didnt originate here it was a gift from a friend who was visiting from wa. state.HACKED doesnt do it justice and god only knows if it ever worked when its last repair was done. i rebuilt all the bakelite blocks as per the phlilco repair bench. it took a while to get a filter cap can to stuff with new 10 mfd film caps.i wish i had a WIRING DIAGRAM with all the color codes as i would have been able to more easily able to check the point to point wiring.i would have re-wired the whole thing. the ground path seems intact.lastly the far right compensator cap doesnt seem to have any effect
