Hi Maintainable is a tough call on a lot of stuff. You might do better to shop for a counter in the $30 to 50 range and plan on buying 2 or 3. There are a lot of people selling printed manuals for the price of a counter ...
Quick check of $30 to $50 shows: HP5314 HP5315 HP5316 HP5326 HP5383 Fluke 1952 Fluke 1953 above the $50 limit but below $100 HP5345 HP5328 HP5335 Others that *should* be below $50 HP5381 HP5382 All have their quirks and issues. I'd simply troll the auctions and plan on placing a number of low bids. In a month or two you should be able to get what you need cheap. I would shop price rather than a specific model, since there are a lot of boxes that will do what you need to do.

I have seen Fluke 1953a counters advertised on Ebay. Is this a good choice or would something else be better? -- Chuck Forsberg WA7KGX N2469R [email protected] www.omen.com Developer of Industrial ZMODEM(Tm) for Embedded Applications Omen Technology Inc "The High Reliability Software" 10255 NW Old Cornelius Pass Portland OR 97231 503-614-0430 _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
