The manual is here.

B&K 501

And you will need a 'scope to display the results.

There is a left/right switch so you can easily compare two devices.

Anybody out there familiar with the old Tektronix 575 curve tracer. I have one but have never used it. I ordered a bunch of 6AN8 and 6AL5 tubes for it but never got around to installing them. Is it worth it to test and match transistors?
