Doug, I bought a Fluke 175 DMM from Fry's Electronics... They also have a webpage for online ordering if you don't have a Fry's near your home. IMHO, the best investment I've made as far as a meter goes. And under $200 (but not much) so it meets your "specs".
Here's a link: http://shop3.outpost.com/{iLa171Q+M3RUgogrVMfHsg**.node1}/product/2957425;js essionid=iLa171Q+M3RUgogrVMfHsg**.node1?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG 73 de Mark - N9WYS -----Original Message----- From: Repeater-Builder@yahoogroups.com On Behalf Of Doug W7FDF I have need of a battery operated portable digital multimeter. I have a Simpson 260 analog meter and a bench ac operated Simpson 464-4 digital meter. I would prefer a Fluke digital portable multimeter. Yes, I have checked eBAY and there are over 400 Fluke meters of various models and functionality. So many to choose from. Can someone on the list recommend a reasonably priced new, [under $200] Fluke digital multimeter? Please, I am NOT interested in any Radio Shack products or anything from Horatio's Bargain Basement or Goodwill Charities or Bubba's weekly yard sale. OK to email me direct if you have something to offer [sell or trade]. Thanks. 73 Doug W7FDF Vail, Arizona U.S.A. 927.850/R IRLP node 3850
