What is the model number of that Heathkit?

I ask because I have one of their cap testers, with an eye tube. I've
had it for a few years. I plugged it in when i got it and it lights up,
eye tube works, but I never put it to use. I'd tell you the model number
of mine, but I will have to dig it out of my storage shed.


It is an IT-28. Has a Power Factor test which is useful for testing
power supply caps.

I can make a PDF of my manual if you are desperate...however I expect it
is online somewhere.
