Ok guys, I know this is likely to start a HUGE thread so please be as
brief as possible.

Over my 50+ years of electronics I have used so darn many multimeters
starting with my first one being a Simpson 260 in the 1950's. My
latest one being a Triplett DMM about to give up the ghost, I need to
replace it.

I want something that is true RMS, has lots of ranges, does not have
to be autoranging, is of good accuracy, is sufficiently rugged, large
display (not a pocket one) state of the art testing but not interested
in computer interface, can be bench or handheld. I do not want to
spend my whole month's social security on it but am willing to buy a
"GOOD" one.

I have looked at ads for Fluke, Mastech, Extech, RSR, BK Precision,
Tenma, Amprobe, Protek, and so many others that I never heard of nor
can I pronounce the name.

Sock it to me!
