Default Re: AVO Multimeter survey

I picked up a very Late Model 7 Mk II recently in fabulous condition, like new.
Only defect is a missing Dust Cap on one of the PF Sockets.

Since there hasn't been a Serial Number given for a while, I thought I would take the opportunity of entering this one.

15687 7/10/76

What did grab my attention though, is that this Model 7 is about 4 Years later than
the Model 8's move to a Plastic Case and Strap, but it still has a Bakelite Case and Leather Strap.

It would seem AVO were still making very High Quality Meters well into the 70's.

Not sure when the last Model 7 rolled off the production line, we have a couple logged
from 1977 and a Model 40 logged as 1978.
