Repetition: The archives are useful sometimes, but I am not so sure this time. Although I have never seen one I would be interested in a wiring diagram of a Kafoh speed tester. All I know about them is this:

Can anybody with more knowledge please help?
There are Kahfo shutter testers with different tubes sets (this one probably built around 1960: ECC82, ECC85, EF80, 85A2, name of photomultiplier not known, probably 931A). Wiring diagram wanted/ needed. If anyone reading this has more info, please help, W.

... well, ok, so I am alone with this problem. Meanwhile I have got the tester back to working condition after replacing a 0.05Mfd condenser which turned out to be shut, but in order to get down to the nitty-gritty I need the wiring diagram. I do have a manual, but it does not say anything about the internals, an overhaul without a schematic outline would be tough.

Thank you for the tip, John, in my younger years I was hooked on vintage tube radios and stuff, and just for the fun of it I restored tube-operated darkroom equipment (auto exposure cassette for photographic paper, "Howaldt B 18". 150C2, E92CC, P569.1GR.V/VI). Every now and that old feeling for tube gadgets comes back and faces me with new problems.
While poking around for the wiring diagram I was offered access to a forum in this country http://www.jogis-roehrenbude.de/ but decided not to get registered because I know what being addicted to that sort of activity may lead to ...
(trouble&strife, more things in her way, etc.).
I'll have to ponder it over, thanks again for your encouragement, maybe in return you find the above link useful, W.

Thanks, Wernerjb. Interesting stuff. And it will help me bring my "A-Level" Deutsch up to scratch!
