Hello all...
Have been lurking here for a while soaking up some wisdom in anticipation of
receipt of my K2. As I lost all of my tools etc. in Katrina, I'm in the
process of re-stocking, including a new digital multimeter. I've poked
around on the net some, but the choices are truly bewildering.
Check out the BK 2707A which has exceptional
features/capabilities; too many to mention here,
for around $80USD. Used here for 3+ years.

The Velleman 890L is a versatile instrument at a reasonable price. It
has all the usual functions plus capacitance measurement, transistor
hFE, temperature (includes probe), frequency to 20 KHz, current ranges
to 20 amperes, and auto-shutoff so you don't run the battery down.

Louis,
I picked up an ESCORT EDM-163 at Dayton several years ago (new) at a good
price (about $65) for the features it offered - Handheld, Auto power off,
auto-ranging with manual override, bargraph display as well as digital,
current measurement to 10 Amps and down to 200 uA, diode forward
Just a quick note here. I got a real cheap DMM for free wih my
soldering iron with way too few digits to be of use. However, I bought a
mini dmm when I was in Japan that is still my favorite when I can find
it. Most of my measurements (and repairs, I've found) are things like,
Is there power? or,
Just remember: a cheap DMM is so much nicer than having no DMM.
I'm not sure I agree with this statement. During alignment test II
of my K2, my cheap DMM went wonky on me. Looking for VCO voltages on
R30, and no matter what I tried, I only got a few dozen millivolts.
So I checked for
