Philco 077 signal generator
#1

I recently saw this nice example on ebay and decided it was finally time to get one.  It just arrived yesterday and I took a few photos.  It's smaller and lighter than I expected. The tubes appear to be originals and the controls operate smoothly. I have to restore it electrically soon and align some radios with it Icon_smile

Does anyone know what kind of AC cord plugged into the side or what the test leads look like ?

It's funny to see the same resistors and bakelite blocks used in their radios.
