I've had one for years - That and a 90V battery = my capacitor checker. The original probes were gray, then red, and finally a shade of blue. You can't kill the red ones - the gray and blue ones were prone to cracking.
RCA made a whole series of these WV-98's - Junior, Senior and Master VoltOhmysts. Ive got one of each, although the Sr. is my tried and true.
Your HP410C is a badass instrument! We used them extensively in the Navy in maintaining old tube-based UHF radios. It was such a comfortable meter to work with that many of the techs could change function and range by feel - only looking up at the meter while for a split second in aligning a radio. Amazing to watch. The techs were more interested in the AF output meter, the Scope, and the RF output meter. 1960's technology, still going strong in the late 80's, and very supportable even then.
Cheers,
