There are some cheaper make but I like to stick with Phoenix.

To order online in the U.S. requires a valid business email domain and valid matching business address for shipping and billing. I tried once using my work email and home address for billing and they rejected it. Maybe I could have called to make it happen but it wasn't worth the effort. I'm not sure how they benefit from making it so restrictive.
ve7xen:
My unit has arrived. Looks like similar condition to others - missing rear bezel and knob, fairly dirty, and the front window is pretty badly scratched, though doesn't hamper use. There is a toggle switch on the rear marked AC-I CAL that also seems to be physically broken (the toggle just floats around). Shows -50mA with no load so probably needs calibration.
TheSteve:
Sounds like an interesting user added mod that needs to be removed.
I will be doing a Keysight parts order soon if you need a knob ve7xen - however I'm in Langley and with the cost of fuel/tolls it probably wouldn't be worth your time.

It certainly doesn't look user-added, as the label seems to be printed on the same sticker as all the other rear-panel markings (see attached). I can't find any reference to it in the service or user manuals, or the current product info though. The closest thing I found was the inhibit calibration switch (I CAL), but the AC bit is confusing. Most likely this is what it is though, as it says 'hold to cal'. I wonder if this is a discontinued orderable option? My unit is HP marked so it must be fairly old.

I might take you up on that if you don't mind just mailing a couple items to me by post. I'll PM you.
