My Australian version came with this 'Thermocouple' gauge, showing amps.

Hi Ron
yes the voltmeter is a separate item . The set itself has a small test panel on the front , you can measure the plate voltages of the valves , without pulling the set from its case , a neat idea
The meter in your pic is a RF thermo ammeter , it measures the radio frequency current , flowing within the antenna circuit - it can give you false readings as it measures both forward and reflected current and adds them together . Mike
