Got a couple of these 400 Watt four-quadrant (source/sink) beastly heavy supplies (so unfortunately, including the one I previously had ,now I have 3 total. At least they are different 400W models). For about $95 each, was hard to resist!
What made this impossible to resist, was the 55 pounder shipping was only $30 (I've seen others at shipping cost of $120--$170)...so I was forced to bite.
These include the optional RS-232 /488 interface, which allows some form of waveform "programming" (don't yet know any details).
Channel Programming resolution is 16-bits, positive and negative.
Looks like these guys sold 4 or 5 units recently...there is one left (they seem to be listing one per week):

This thing has something like 110 vacuum tubes.

I have been trying to stay away from this thread but was lured back...
In 1980-1983 I was working in a university building built in the 1800's that could get a bit cold when the steam heat was not doing the business. Luckily a Tektronix 555 on its original cart was available to use as an office heater whenever we needed it. It worked quite well for that purpose.

I would have totally picked one up too if the cost of shipping it over to Europe was not so huge.
... Then again i did buy things before where the shipping cost more than the actual item.

HAMEG 20MHz , free, all working, still using it.
wkb:
HP 8642a, needs a new battery and the LCD backlight needs new bulbs. It will get white LEDs for obvious reasons. This is the 2nd unit I own.
HP8657a, fully functional afaict.
The bottom HP PSU I rescued from the scrap, a colleague of mine brought it into the office, it was private property, to have it join our regular scrap removal. Never hit the scrap pallet, straight into my car booth.
