Heathkit Electronic Switch Model ID-22H
Donated by Bill Karnes
This is an early switch used to show a dual trace on the scope. Later on the name of these devices was changed to a "Comparator" to more accurately describe its function. The dual-trace capability allowed the user to show an actual trace and a reference trace. This way the equipment or device under test could be adjusted to match the reference which would be more accurate that the actual signal. The reference trace would be produced by the Sweep Generator.

Jerrold Starline Series Adapter
Model STA-75
Donated by Kaz Majewski, Centre TV, Wheeling, West Virginia
The STA-75 Adapter was a device used to simulate the "Direct RF Test Points" at the Headend where the sweep signal would be inserted. The adapter could also be used to create a test point where a sweep signal could be inserted for isolated sweep testing or a SPD-30 could be used to check the Cable Plant transmission path.

The STP-75 was a special detector designed to be used with the Input or Output Test Points used in the Jerrold Starline Amplifier product line. Either the STP-75 or the SPD-30 had to be used with the "Direct RF Test Points" provided by Jerrold to test these products.
