You likely know this, but clean the resistors with alcohol before measuring.
Finger prints can cause significant errors, particularly on the higher value
resistor.Regards, Tom Curlee.Sent via the Samsung GALAXY S®4, an AT&T 4G LTE

Subject: [time-nuts] Is there anyone local to me with an 8.5 digit
multimeter?
I'm located in Althorne, Essex (CM3 6DT). I'd like to get a couple ofresistors
(10 M and 100 M) measured on an 8.5 digit meter, then comparethem to what a
34970A data acquisition unit says. I don't want to spend afortune on very
high-end resistors, so bringing the unit to a 3458A, andmeasuring the resistor
on two meters reasonably close in time, should beenough.There are some issues
with these data acquisition meters, which impactstheir stability. It does not
help the fact that there's no S/N on it, so idon't now if it has any particular
fault.-- Dr David Kirkby Ph.D C.Eng MIETKirkby Microwave LtdRegistered office:
