EXCELLENT survey, Mr. Beierl!

And a fine tutorial, too. I started my career in electronics in the 5th
grade using small analog VOMs, but it was fun to read the tutorials here
-- while none of it was unfamiliar, much of it had been moved into my
memory's subterrenean storage space.

The Elenco M105 looks like just the ticket for the occasional time when
watching shifting levels is more important than getting accurate
measurements.
