     The 427 is a neat meter. I had one on my bench at -hp- 
it does most measurements that do not require very high 
accuracy or RF coverage above about 4 mhz. Get the AC kind 
if you can but the battery model will run on two 9v 
transistor batteries although the life will be fairly short. 
The original battery was 24. something and has not been 
available for a long time.
