You've got the "good word" about those measurements, but your comment
concerned me! Be very careful to ensure that any analog meter you use for
resistance checks is designed for use with solid-state circuits! Many of the
wonderful, top-of-the-line-for-their-day analog volt-ohmmeters (VOMs) can
destroy modern solid state devices.

The problem is that they apply too much voltage and allow too much current
to flow through the circuit under test when making resistance measurements
in modern solid-state circuits! It's often plenty to destroy devices
instantly.
