Joe Curto (Mr. SU) in NYC has one of these machines that he demonstrated a few
years ago. It's cerca 195? and still works, except for the vacuum pump. He
was trying to get the vacuum piece fixed way back then, but was having trouble
locating someone who understood how it worked. Or something like that...
Impressive machine to watch.

It allows you to check point resistance, condenser performance
electrically. You also spin the dizzy at different RPMs and strobically (is
there such a word?) watch the advance either mechanical, or with
vacuum(there's a built-in pump) or both. You can "see" what the dizzy is doing
at any RPM. What you need to know is what it should be doing, or what you want
it to do. It's kind of neat.. flashing lights, dangerously fast spinning metal
objects, vacuum pump hammering away... great fun.
