So I dug out my Avo 8, set to the 50µA range, hooked a matching diode 
from another Indy PSU up to a 300VDC supply via a couple of 1Mohm 
resistors and a 2Mohm pot as a voltage divider.  I found that as I wound 
the pot up from zero volts, the reverse leakage current rose abruptly 
from 2-3µA to a few tens of µA at about 59V across the diode, and the 
voltage across it dropped a little as I wound the pot up further.

So I think it's a Schottky rectifier diode, with a PIV rating probably 
between 50V and 60V.  Of course I have no idea what the current rating 
might be, and I can't think of a simple safe way to work that out.

Any comments?
