The plans at the website you mention are pretty dated - they are more or
less from the original edition of the Oxy Hacker, and the plans in the new
Hacker have been updated, and an alternate version added which uses a
different meter, the PM 128 which many electronic suppliers in the USA
carry.

I've been using the original version wqith the DMD for a couple years now,
and recently  tightened up the calibration according to the newer plans. I
also helped a friend build one recently using the PM128 meter, and feel the
DMD is enough easier that its worth the extra $5 or so - especially seeing
as how you can order by phone/credit card os it isn't any harder to get.
Just be sure they send it first class mail so it doesn't get stuck in
customs.
