Manufacturer: RCA (USA)
Model: 158, S#???
Vintage: 1942
Purpose: General Purpose
Condition: Unknown
Comments:
The 158 model by RCA is one of the first 5in scopes made by RCA.
This one may have been made for the US Navy as a stamp on chassis indicates.
I don't know if the shield is original but I probably should have removed it for the pictures :)
There are some components which were replaced, also the probe connector for Y input is not original. It was probably added to accept probes i.e. made by Jackson.
