Hi All,

Thanks so much everyone for your comments. I especially liked "get the
orange one". Because that's what I did get (I think it's orange - could be
yellow).

I was deliberately vague (apologies) but I just wanted a broad response.
Which I got.

I've settled on the Fluke 87V. It's on it's way.

Jim
