This is is electronic but i don't suppose General.

 

I just got the DMM i've always dreamt of.

She's an old lady from about 90' , but still a beauty. And the insides are fine.

 

The graybeards know her for sure.

 

But if you don't know her already ... Stop now , in order not to be addicted.

She's almost as expensive as the SWMBO.

A grand lady, but I think you're just a child. My late, lamented Tektronix scope contained an 8080 processor.

Bingo,

 

What are you doing that requires such a grand old lady?

 

Cheers,

NICE!!!

 

I wished I could afford one.

 

I am looking at this:

It appears you have a bit of a DC offset in that first picture wink

 

What a nice instrument, (but I'm afraid it would take up most of my work bench!).

 

Take care,

 

JC

@Ross - Well some have an aircraft , i could only afford "The old lady"

Besides i'm afraid that KKP has infected me with the "volt-nuts" dicease, that decease is lethal for your wallet.

 

@Jim - I have one of those , a very nice meter , that doesn't take up much benchspace.

That price seems a bit expensive for a US price.  Note: The ones with "Black bananas for minus" are newer models , and the ones with "the rounded blue button" are the latest gen.

 

I got the "old lady" on ebay France.

 

 

@Tom - That's a "granny" not a "lady" wink

 

@Doc - The first pic was just after poweron , the 2'nd was with the short mounted .... But after an ACAL ALL (The lady can autocalibrate her self) it's she shows only fluctuation on the last digit.
