This auction is for a working vintage (circa 1957) Heathkit in-circuit CT-1 capacitor checker.  This piece of test equipment checks a capacitor for an open, shorted or intermittent condition.  The CT-1 uses a green "tuning eye", which is a 1629 tube.  I carefully recapped the unit (see pics of my workmanship), checked for out of tolerance resistors, and used it briefly during a transceiver restoration.  It is a nice conversation piece and fun to amaze the technical types, but I simply have no use for it now. As the various pics show, overall condition is good.  I believe this to be a factory build because the assembly (i.e., wiring and soldering) is quite clean.  The face is in great condition and most of the cosmetic flaws are in the back of the case.  I took several photos inside and out so please view each one before bidding!  Feel free to ask questions as well!  I will carefully pack to ensure safe transit.
