He purchased this unit sometime in 1961. My father took extreme pride in all of his equipment, taking extreme care in maintaining his systems and keeping his equipment in excellent working order. He was meticulous in protecting all of his electronics over the years.  Over the past few years, my dad has become unable to continue with his hobby and he asked me to help him disassemble his station. I am now in the process of helping him sell off his old equipment. This includes components, tubes, transistors, resistors and other various unused electronics that he has either never opened or used, or has kept in stock for radio kits he built at home. This Heathkit Voltmeter is part of the equipment lot that I am helping him liquidate piecemeal. In short, this this unit is excellent condition. I hope the right buyer can win the bidding for this unit who can get many years of satisfaction out of this unit as my dad has over the past 55 years.  Sold "As-Is"-Please note, I am selling the unit “as-is” and as such, will not accept any returns once the auction is completed. Because the unit is being sold as-is, there are no warranties, either implied or express, as to its current working condition. I can state that when my father last used the unit it worked flawlessly so I have every reason to believe it is still working, but I have not tested it to verify this.  I bear no further obligation to the buyer upon completion of this transaction.  Shipping & Handling Information- This auction is for shipping to buyers in the United States only at this time. However, if you are not in the U.S. and are still interested, please send me a message via the eBay messaging system with the location you would like it shipped outside the US (Country, City, Province, Territory) and I will verify if this is feasible. Please note that the buyer will be responsible for all shipping and handling expenses. I must receive full payment 
Original Owner's Manual (Not Pictured), and the Red and Black Cathode (Not Pictured) are included! - My father was the original owner. He bought this brand new around 1961 for testing equipment in his Ham Radio base station. It is in excellent condition, as the unit was well-cared for and never left the location in which it was used. Please see more in the history of this item below.
