Hi Gents, there are at least 3 Marconi Q meters, the one I have is pretty flexible and has alternative signal sources (TF1246 for 40KHz to 50MHz and TR1427 for 20MHz to 300MHZ). Unit itself is TF1245A.
Probably more expensive than the Advance T2.
The really expensive one would be the Boonton unit, definitely the R/R of Q meters.
Together with the meters there are also boxes of standard coils for cal checking purposes. These often come up chgeaply and will work on all Q meters so are worth getting if seen.
I have manuals for all of the above if needed.
I find it a very useful bit of kit if designing or repairing coils. It will also allow you to design coupled coils such as IFT's with ease.
