It's 2022 and the 8060A is still alive and kicking, Mr. Taylor.
My father served as a field technician for 35 years at IBM in Chile. The first multimeter I ever interacted with was the analog IBM 1749231 (sort of a re-branded Simpson 160).
Even though it was my dad's daily job tool, I used to borrow it from him every single weekend and every time I could, which was very frequently. I was 9, and boy that meter and I went a long way.
When IBM upgraded my dad's meter from that one to the fluke 8060A, he brought it home and showed it to me. I was amazed beyond belief: until that day I had never seen a digital multimeter with LCD display. That Fluke was a thing of beauty. Naturally, being top notch technology I didn't get to play with it until several years later (and I was not too dissapointed since I immediately inherited the Simpson meter I had been borrowing for so long, becoming my very first own meter).
Fast forward to 2022, my dad is in his late 70s and he doesn't get to do hands-on electronics anymore as he just lost interest. Me however, I have a full blown electronics bench, far beyond my dad's dreams as a young tech and I DO care for that 8060A since I got to use it plenty as a teenager and I do recognize its value and quality. So yesterday, I asked the old man if I could take his meter for a ride, and brought it home with me (trust me, I tried that move a few times years ago, without success but I was on a lucky roll this weekend).
The Fluke was in good shape but quite dirty. So I took it apart and gave all the love and care I could to it. I probably spent an hour cleaning it very carefully. I removed a bit of corrosion from the battery input cap -where the batt wires meet the main board-, and this thing of beauty shines again.
Yes, next step is a complete cap replacement, at a later time. Right now, it seems to be as calibrated as the day it was born. I'll find a cheap meter for the old man so he has one if he ever needs it.
