Steve, the 260 is a fine VOM but, it is old and the calibration can't be  
trusted until it is checked with proper equipment.
 
The resistors change value with age and who knows what damage could have  
occurred in the past due to operator error etc.

I have a  Simpson 260, Series 5. What I don't have is the manual for  it. 
What  I'd most like to know is what accuracy it's rated for on the 5000 
volt   
scales, both AC and DC.  I believe the meter is rated for 2% of  full  
scale 
accuracy up to 1000 volts DC and 3% on AC, but I haven't  been able to  
track 
down a number for the HV scales.

Your  help, as always, is appreciated!
