well,,
my plan to gut a cheapy analog meter isnt acceptable.

first off it WILL WORK to use the pieces parts from a cheap analong meter but i dont actually like where it was taking me as far as bulk of parts.


so........ i continue my hunt for something in one box that will do the job

im just looin around right now.. i have no clue how to integrate a real s-meter but im sure theres nothing to it.

so far................

i really like this one,, its small like i want..

this one is kinda big but still much smaller than regular power /switch gear panel mounted ones.
