Tandberg 3011A
Little is documented about the Tandberg 3011A. What the record shows is that it is not an audio component at all, but a piece of vintage test equipment — specifically, an RF millivoltmeter. The only known sightings of this model come from a single sale listing and a brief forum discussion in the UK, where one appeared on a local selling site described by the seller as a working vintage RF millivoltmeter.
That listing priced it at £15, and a forum user responded with interest, suggesting it might be a nice project at that price if complete and well worth restoring. Beyond that, almost nothing is recorded. No specifications — frequency range, voltage ranges, input impedance, accuracy, or connector type — have surfaced. No production years, original price, circuit details, or manual have been found. The unit appears in no database entries or spec sheets retrieved for this archive.
Known facts, in full:
Period coverage of Tandberg equipment in the 1980s was largely promotional, with one 1984 issue of Stereo Review featuring the brand as part of a reader sweepstakes prize rather than in a technical review, as noted in Stereo Review, June 1984, p.101.
- RF millivoltmeter (test equipment, not consumer audio)
- Observed listed for sale at £15 on a UK local selling site, described as working
- One forum user expressed interest in acquiring it for further investigation
If you own a 3011A or have seen a manual, the archive would welcome the details.
