Marty and Wayne,
The device I have been using for my SG is a lab grade glass floating
hydrometer. It is a nice one, no moving parts, and is what I have been using
for quite some time. I have not compared it to another hydrometer for a
while though, so I will do that as well.
Thanks for the suggestion,
Shane
