Doug, My first post here is my DMM advice. When I was younger, i bought cheap meters. They worked but not for long, just wouldn't hold up to field work. I got smart and spent the $175 for a Fluke and have never regretted it. Here's some advice, no matter what brand you buy... Look at the sample rate. The better meters take more samples per second, so the display is updated more often. Some cheap meters only update the display every second or so. You will miss peaks and dips when tuning circuits because of this. My Fluke is pretty fast sampling, but I still use an old Motorola analog meter for some tuning applications.
Hope this helps in your purchasing decision. 73 Josh K6ZRX K2/100 #6097 _______________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Post to: [email protected] You must be a subscriber to post to the list.
