Please read the entire listing AND our Terms and Conditions before placing a bid or using the Buy It Now option. Vintage Heathkit IM-2A Impedance Bridge: This unit is a 1950s, piece of vintage test equipment. Externally, the unit physically appears to be in good condition. Here are my observations as I cleaned it up for eBay. The case appears to be in very good condition. The unit powers on. The controls rotate freely. The meter responds to the “zero” set control. Due to time constraints, I could NOT verify proper operation. The unit is being sold as-is. No effort was made to calibrate or to characterize the performance. A Google search brought up several on-line references to help with restoring this unit to its original specs. Being a simple tube design, it should be relatively easy to check out. For best performance, purchaser should be willing to check tubes, and to calibrate the unit. With some work, this unit will make a great addition to a collectors vintage workbench. ------------------------- Items being sold have been donated to the Antique Wireless Association Museum for the improvement of its collection, or for its continuing operation and support.
