Does anybody know anything about this tuner? There’s a guy in my area with one for sale on CL and from the description this tuner is rare and very high-end. I’ve heard of Heathkit but not this particular tuner

Yeah, I passed on it because I thought he was insane as well. It did spark my interest in this tuner, mainly because it’s different. Thank for the info and advice.
