Good. I hope your meter never has a need for any of the procedures in there!
Personally, I find these old meters very likeable in all forms. You can go to any hamfest and pick up a really nice old analog VTVM for $5. You could quickly and cheaply have a house full of them. VOMs are more expensive--isn't that odd? I have one of the 260's numeric-readout successors--the Simpson 467. Runs on a 9V battery and is bulletproof. It's a fine product also. OTOH, I also have a Simpson meter (269? 369?--something ending in a 9) that has a large face and claims to be a 100,000 ohms per volt VOM. This does not seem to be a very good meter by comparison. It has not held up well over time. 73, Don Merz, N3RHT -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, September 27, 2004 8:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [AMRadio] SIMPSON MAINTENANCE MANUAL Hi Don, The envelope full of 260 info and your flier arrived safely today. I sure do appreciate the time and effort that went into making copies and getting them in the mail. I have several 260s and swear by them when working with boatanchors. I recently picked up a 360 which looks the same as the 260 but with a digital readout in place of the analog meter. If you happen to have any info on this one, I would be happy to pay for copies, etc. Thanks again, you get the September Good Guy award in my book! 73, John, W4AWM ______________________________________________________________ AMRadio mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/amradio Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.html Post: mailto:[email protected] The information contained in this e-mail may be confidential and is intended solely for the use of the named addressee.
