The $2.99 meter at Harbor freight has removable leads, 1000VDC and
750VAC ranges, Ohms200 to 2000K, 10ADC and 200maAC and includes a
transistor tester and back lighting. I usually buy 5 each time I am
in there and I sometimes use them as panel meters in projects if there
is room behind the panel.
Thats a great idea as I was wondering about it also

Thanks for those two pieces of data. I am planning on building one
for my son-in-law for Christmas and have been looking for a good
schematic.
BTW, a nice case can be made from a $20 Armour jewelry case from
BigLots. The have one that is about 4 feet tall with legs and side

I have an 833 that shows continuity on the filament...only test I can
dothat I would trade for something interesting. No warranty beyond that
the filament was good when it left here. It looks clean to look at it, not
burned.

I have been a ham/HAM since 195850 years, and have always
capitalized it. Seeing in as all lower case doesnt look right to me.
But I have also seen it as Ham, which to me makes NO sense, since its

Well, I am an OLD buzzard at 71 years of age and 50 years as a ham.

Uh... 'wastes time with the carrier'?
You sure
The KWS-1 has issues in that it transmits ONLY one sideband NOT both.
That is precisely WHY I passed by the one that was/is

As such - it is a POOR example to cite for "AM vs SSB"

The noise on SSB comes in the form of perceioved irritation

AM has the inherent quality of BLANKING the background
