[BC] Throwing out a FIM...

[Burt I. Weiner]

Tell me, why would you throw out a Field Meter???  The old 
Nems-Clarke, RCA's and Vitro's are still very reliable 
instruments.  I have three of them that I run on a series string of 9 
Volt batteries and they are in agreement with my recently calibrated 
FIM-41.  The older units may not be quite as convenient but they can 
be just as accurate and certainly just as portable.

Maybe the person that paid almost $800 for a Nems-Clarke on eBay 
knows what a new one costs and isn't so crazy after all.  The next 
time anyone wants to throw one out, call me first.  I'll gladly pay 
the shipping.
