The difference between resolution and accuracy is pretty intuitive to those 
(old farts) who have lived through the transition from analog meters and slide 
rules to digital meters and calculators.  It is an important differentiation to 
be passed on to  folks who haven’t thought about it.

Eh?

I got some, old and recent, and I used them once to show  folks it was their 
14-digit $XX,000, buss-controlled remote multimeter that had them (planless and 
clueless) testing everything in sight for WEEKS.

I have a Classic 1948 John Deere “M” tractor. I cannot measure the battery 
voltage (to see if the generator is charging the battery) while the engine is 
running because the emissions from the ignition is so bad it causes by DMM to 
malfunction.

Yeah, I have to fix the ignition in my ‘69 right now.  Maybe I’ll replace the 
condenser while I’m at it.

True enough, but there are still automobiles out there with old, noisy, 
ignition systems.  Heard an old VW Beetle go by lately?  And to think, someone 
built an OATS near a freeway years ago.  What were they thinking?
 
Fortunately, the ignition system in the plane I’m flying to dinner later this 
afternoon is well suppressed.  We still use AM radios in airplanes for 
communications.

Do we have any products these days that produce such emissions?  I’m not sure 
that a 10 kHz repetition rate ever occurred anyway. For an ignition system, 
3000 RPM and 4 four-stroke cylinders only gives 600 Hz.

The QP detector was designed in the 1930s to simulate the response of the human 
ear to impulsive interference.  The classic example at the time was the 
interference from ignition systems in automobiles to AM broadcast receivers, 
both in the car and nearby.  A single click is well filtered by the ear and 
brain, but as the repetition rate goes up the perceived annoyance and 
interference goes up.  By the time the repetition rate has reached 10 kHz the 
ear/brain combination is really annoyed and the quasi-peak detector and a peak 
detector respond about the same.
 
Hope this helps.

How would you define the Quasipeak detector to somebody that is not EMC
