Neil,
Thanks for the reply. The 5 position rotary switch is in the lower
left corner and the positions are marked "A' thru "E" but no
reference to reverse readings. If and when you have the oportunity
to pull your TEK manuals out and review them I would really
appreciate knowing what you find out, and possibly getting a copy of
the manual from you for my files and reference (hard copy thru snail
mail, email, fax, whatever is convenient for you).
