Skipp,

In the Repeater Builder shop, we commonly use the HP 8920A service 
monitor for measuring bench sensitivity.  It has the digital meter as 
you speak unfavorably of.  We have found that the averaging of this 
function is adjustable.  Making the averaging value 12 makes the thing 
work like my original "Sinadder" needle type meter, and takes a function 
that is basically worthless to pleasant.  Of course, adjustments must be 
made slower, but I never hurry an alignment anyway.
