Just about the time Detwiller came out with that service monitor (SM-512) based on a Bearcat BC-210xlt, AIE sent us a flyer introducing a similar product under the Measurements name. From what I remember, it was a rectangular box like a CE-50 and based on a mobile scanner using LED bar graph displays instead of meters. Batesburg, Va. Wasn't it? Never heard anything about them after that.
