AVO 9 MkIV
Philips PM2517E (DMM)
Solartron 7150+ (Bench DMM)
Marconi TF 2700 (LCR bridge)
Marconi 893C (AF power meter)

Power supply;

Farnell E350 (0-350V plus a selection of heater voltages)
ISO-Tech IPS1603D (0-60V 3A)

Signal sources;

Philips PM5324 (RF Generator - AM/FM 100kHz - 110MHz)
Philips PM5132 (Function Generator 0.1Hz - 2MHz)
Philips PM5519 (TV Pattern generator)
Thandar TG105 (Pulse generator)

Oscilloscope;

Tektronix 475 (200MHz)

Miscellaneous;

Philips PM6307 (Wow and flutter meter)
Bradley 192 (Oscilloscope calibrator)
AVO Mk2 VCM
Heathkit IT1B (Transistor tester).
Homebrew ESR meter
Homebrew Capacitor reformer

Homebrew crystal checker.

Then there are several other 'scopes, meters and other stuff not in daily use.
