Cool stuff, but storage is limited so we have to be pretty ruthless on
what will be of benefit vs how much space it takes up.

My initial thoughts would be:

> Hung Chang multimeters type 7040 and 7050.
Analogue ones ? i would inclined to say not worth it

> Farnell Power supplies with 2 meters, 36V 1A max
Yes, especially if they are adjustable voltage.

> Resistance substitution boxes
> Capacitor substitution boxes
no day to day use for these

> Components in component drawers
always useful

> Transistor curve tracers
> Three HP phase meters
if these are what i think they are then i cant imagine they would ever
get used

> An LCR component bridge
one of these sounds like it could be useful, as long as its not too
huge.

> Hand tools
probably useful.

> ... in fact most of the bits you might find in a teaching lab.
We had really hoped for more of those hitachi oscilloscopes or
equivalent, as one of the two we have is a bit flakey.
