Here you can see the 3 of the 4 versions of this RF Test set. Marconi 2955 is upper, Marconi 2955A is left and the most previous model the Marconi 2955B is the white one. There is also the 2955R model that looks like the the B.
A & B are with the Marconi 2958 or 2960 add-on optional unit for TACS and Cellural phones testing!
Normally those units selling at Ebay from $800 (near 630 Euros) the older model up to 4 - 5000 $ !!!
And sometimes there are units that have faults! So before buying one ask the seller to run the self test and show you the results! Self test routine is called by pressing the "HELP" button on face and after the Menu screen shows up pessing the "SELF TEST"
Yes it's THAT SIMPLE! If any test fails an error code will be shown right next to the test number. If all are ok then a "PASSED" message will appear at every test independedly!
So even an idiot can run it and see the results. Should look like the screen snapshot at left! Ask your seller to prove you that his not! If he refuses then don't buy a Marconi 2955 from an idiot, if you're not looking for troubles!
If it looks like this and the price is right for your wallet buy it! You will be another happy Marconi 2955 owner for many years!!! Had 3 of them and I know it from first hand :) |
