[Boatanchors] Off topic - advice on a DMM

[Jack Taylor]

I have both, an inexpensive Radio Shack digital multimeter and a HP-410B.
Each
has their place.  Around boatanchors, the HP is my preferred meter.  The
Radio
Shack unit is accurate enough to use as a shack calibration standard as is
probably
most any other inexpensive digital multimeter.
