I've added a second HP 5061A. It's somewhat older than the other one, but has a fairly new FTS tube and a replacement late-model 10811A oscillator. Here are the pertinent details:

HP 5061A SN 1248A00857
FTS Tube Model 1-105, SN 1098

Placed in service 6 March 2005.

This unit looks like it might have come out of Loran or some other positioning service as it has a sticker telling which direction to adjust the C field if range between base and mobile increases or decreases. It also has some interesting extra connectors, but I'm not sure if they still do anything.
