Eighty years ago, the well equipped radio service shop could very well have been equipped with a Wobbulator. Shown here, in the April 1936 issue of Service magazine is the Model 180 Wobbulator, manufactured by the Triumph Manufacturing Company of 4017 W.

The Wobbulator should not be confused with a Gonculator, a device used only on submarines.
