A Galvo uses very low current, so any caps or coils that break down under load or when warm (Rank A640 LOPT anyone) would not show up on this.
Might be useful as a milliohmeter though. If you're tracing a short, the resistance of wire or print may show up so you can effectively trace it.
When I worked for Ultrak in Warrington, I used one to find a short circuit diode on a 16 camera switcher unit. Trouble was, although my boss was impressed some of the salesmen hated my guts from that day on.
Such is life.

If we've always had that, why is the car boot open? You aren't smuggling in another old TV are you...?
