Just picked this gadget up at the local junque store. Apears to be an r.f.
tuned cavity. It has a acorn tube inside with marking "5 mA" that I can't
identify. Any info or ideas as to what this might be worth? If nothing, at
least it has a nice barrel micrometer on the end that I can put to use.

Where am I going, and what am I doing in this handbasket?

I saw that. But it's more than I paid for the gadget.

I thought that may be the case but if you actually planed on using it it
may be worth it.

Chicken-egg problem. Unless I know its specs and how to set it up, I don't
know if I can use it.
