Have been lucky enough to just acquire an Avo 9 MKII in as new condition with case and leads !
S/no 12610.1267, which I assume to be a December '67 unit ?
I am so chuffed to get a 9, they seem to be so scarce, and in this condition a real gem !

Also acquired a nice Multiminor MK 5, s/no 00123. Has a Nato part # on the upper left of the top plate.

Also, I have a little tip for cleaning dust from the top panels of Avo 7, 8 etc. Blutak !!
Just press a ball of it into the panel and it takes out all but the stubborn stuff.
To re-fill the white markings I use a paint pen, wiping away the surplus with a business card.
