[Boatanchors] Simpson 260 VOM help

[RJ Mattson]

Ron, WA2EIO
Here is what I found for the 260 series 6
Resistor to the left of the zero adj pot is 11k  1%
2 resistors just below the same pot  123.5  1%
                                                              17.55k  1%  
There is a resistor just to the right of these two (much larger) 121k 1%
