Murray,
The HP Vector Voltmeter is a very useful device.
What some people do not realize is that is actually 2 independent power
meters.
If you have the full meter, you will have 2 slip-on 50 0hm loads.
So you can use it for adjusting an amplifiers gain, etc.

Hi,
I found an old HP 8508A in the store room at work, and it looks like a
useful candidate for Time Nuts activities. It seems to work OK, and
while it has GPIB, I don't at present have GPIB on my computer, but I
can connect up a chart recorder.
Has anybody any comments about using this instrument for comparison of
references, for example?
73,
Murray ZL1BPU
