Hi all,
I'm a week or two new to the list and am preparing to jump into a K2
building project. I need to upgrade some of my gadgets, though, and one
is the DMM - my current one doesn't measure capacitance. Does anyone
have any recommendations? Would the cheap one at

be good enough? It's the age old challenge of trying to not spend too
much but trying to not buy trash, too. I remember someone's email
signature from a few years ago that was along the lines of, "Engineers
aren't cheap, they just optimize cost." :-)
In that vein, any recommendations for a decent soldering station - maybe
Jameco's analog, temp. controlled $58 one with a screwdriver tip? It's
Jameco part #229673 at

The dinky soldering iron I have now has been used to successfully build
a QRP rig and a variety of other things, but nothing has been nearly as
expensive as a K2 either, so I figure it'd be wise to play it safe.
Thanks for any tips! (Pardon the pun.)
Mike AB3AP
