[Test-Equipment] Q-Meter Certifiable Calibration it isn't but......

[J M Noeding]

Perhaps not possible to ship to Norway, but you could perhaps give some =
description of the coils. Wouldn't it be an idea to wind such coils on =
readily available Amidon cores with standard wire size, so it is easy to =
duplicate? I use a Radiometer Q-meter, also have a Heath Kit QM-1
