You might be able to run red lights and stop signs for a while, too. I would never use a digital (don't even own one) for anything but pure DC, clean sinewave AC, or ohms.

I like the way you think!

I would like to learn more about exactly what a VTVM can do that no others can do, or do as well. I have a Simpson VTVM and a huge bench model Hickok.
