I was just wondering what type of meters everyone is using. I use a JDSU SDA 5000 with return Sweep, and a Trialithic 860 DSPi.

Well the Fisher-Price Toy Company sent me the HP Calan 3010R Damn thing weighs 10 lbs and as big as a brief case.
Oh and Forbins this Pic 2 is the bag I carry my probes in....A little big, I know.

That thing is awesome looking Olo. The best part is that it looks like you can also use that as a Geiger counter.

I think he stole it from the museum of natural history!
What are you boys saying I'm old or something??? We still have one at the office as a reminder to any tech that looses his meter that is the replacement until a new one is ordered. Haven't had to use it in years!!!
I knew all the frequencies by my 2nd week on the job.... So what if it was only 36 ch system

I agree, that shit's too old for SETI, it must be from the museum.
