I had mostly B&K brand stuff on my bench.
I always thought Sencore equipment was grossly overpriced! I don't remember them, building a tube checker, that equaled the B&K. I guess the Mighty-Mite was OK for service calls.
I just picked up a VA48 analyzer. They're the ones, that aren't as desirable as the newer one. It seems like a newer generation B&K analyst. Like GE, it's good enough for now.
