Capacitor Tester???
#13

After I posted the reply about thinking about a 130, I found out like you said about not being
able to produce a high voltage test.  I missed out on a couple if IT-11's and IT 28'.  I  have a
DMM that resembles the Vichey, and so far it appears to work OK with the caps and resistors. 
Like you said tho' it has it's limits. I understand what you said about some folks just like to
collect and restore test equipment.  I used to do a lot of wood carving, and it takes just a few
tools to produce an impressive piece of wood.  I knew guys that collected wood caving tools
and chisels.  The more they had the better things were.  Kinda like some folks collect friends
on Facebook.  Ain't life great...and versatile. Sumptin' for everyone.
Thanks for the tips......
