HICKOK Model 610A Universal FM and Television Alignment Signal Generator, Manual

Description

For sale is a 1951 vintage HICKOK Model 610A Universal FM and Television  Alignment Signal Generator, left behind in the test equipment "collection" of my late father.   Dad was an active and avid HAM radio operator for 73 years, he was an Army Signal Corps Radio School instructor during the War, and was a radio and other electronics serviceman for much of his life.   He really knew his electronics!   (I, his daughter, know very little, so I am sending this untested, as is, as found.   It was Dad's custom to cut the plug off on items that no longer worked, so I'm guessing that this is just as he retired it.)
Dad apparently purchased this piece of equipment new, since he had the original owner's manual in his files.   I will include that with the signal generator.   Both the equipment and the manual were stored in a dry, smoke-free home.   (We found in his files a more complete operating manual for this unit, and that included schematic drawings for various topics.   I compared them, page by page, and photocopied all the pages with drawings, and I will send them with your manual.   See in the last photos, a photocopy of page 3 from the new manual laid next to the original page.   Also, I included photo diagrams of the components.   I figured that you would want the original manual, but could also use the drawings.)    Detailed literature and schematics can be found on line in the 1951 Newark catalog, No. 51.   In fact, Dad must have found this in an ad, perhaps in one of his electronics magazines, and clipped it out.   I will include that in the manual, as well.
The Radio Museum tells us that it was made in 1951, uses (AC) 105-125V,  is 16.5 x 14 x 7",  covers 10-250 mc with 0-15 mc variable sweep.   And it is heavy!   I can't find anywhere if it came with additional cords or probes, and I don't see any others on line with probes to compare to.   So perhaps it doesn't have specialty connectors.   Anyway, it will come exactly as photographed.
I hope that this is a piece of equipment that you would love to add to your workbench of vintage equipment to authenticate your work on your vintage restoration projects!!   I might just be fun to show off in your "repair shop"!
Thanks for looking here!!
