Subject: Re: volt/amp meter....
Have three Radio Shack and Sears meters of different flavours.  Always
have one where I need it and a backup.  No probems around salt water
after eleven years.  Still "knat's ass" accurate too.  Spent, maybe $80,
total.  Can't see the point in having a Fluke unless someone else is
paying!  Have found it worthwhile spending more for quality probes
though.
