37-620 voltages
#15

When I got two Barts from Kirk for $25 and made one working out of the two, it works great.
I always wanted one. But don't get to use it much.
Found out I don't need it as much. Even for semiconductors where I prefer an analog meter. As I have just discovered.
Recently I found out all I need to fix just about anything is a Voltmeter and an Ohmmeter. Which can be digital. And since I have a Fluke, those are pretty good. I guess there is a reason a Fluke is $250 - $700 while those not-so-bad el cheapo ones are $25 - $60.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.

Is there a reference somewhere where you can punch in Philco part numbers and see what models those parts were used in?Jim Dutridge — 10:17 AM

Hi OSanders, Look carefully at the band switch. Turn it slowly and "wiggle" it around the desired band. ...MrFixr55 — 12:33 AM
