I just ordered an assortment of ½ watt metal film resistors (not carbon film, too high rfi ) Which should have most of what I find bad, I hope.
The resistor I tried to check last night checks at 31m , out of range of the cheap meter I had.
the new cheap meter coming goes up to 200m.
Someplace, somewhere, in my home is hiding a Fluke 73 III...
And I suspect that when I LEAST need it, is when it will crawl out of it's hiding place in the 6th dimension, where it has been the last 6 or more months and reappear.
