  The Avometer has only one linear scale, as I remember.
All those cramped at one end AC scales on other meters
are clumsy by comparison. The 20,000 ohms/volt lack of
sensitivity can be overcome by modern high gain, high
impedance linear amplifiers for a particular range.
  I never owned one, but I used them often at school
when I was around 15 years old.
  Elegance par excellance.
