HP 3468A HP-IL Digital Multimeter

[rprosperi]

Can anyone comment or recommend (for or against) this device?

TAS has some listed at approachable prices, assuming they are truly useful and in good working order.

One listing says "May require calibration. Sold AS-IS."

Warning bells clearly went off, but is the note about calibration typical for these units? If truly required, is this an end-user thing, or only by accessing the guts?

Gotta go look on the Museum DVDs to see if this rare beast is included.

Thanks in advance for comments.
