I pulled a 1502 TDR out of the buck a pound box at Dayton a few years back
and finally got it completely fixed the other week. I had to fab a
battery pack and then fix the charging circuitry, but otherwise it
was fine.
Turned out I had an immediate need for it to measure how much coax I
had left on a roll (answer: exactly enough to do a job). Pretty handy
getting an answer without having to string the cable or unrolling
the entire reel and finding out I'm a foot short.
Anyone have any neat applications for one of these, other than the
obvious ones of finding cable breaks and identifying where connectors are?
