Default Re: AVO Multimeter survey

AVOMETER 8 mk2 - pencilled on the rear of the glass 141075. Bought of Ebay for £12.68 inc.

Voltage and current ranges apeared ok but resistance didnt work at all- I realised that the upper cam wasnt moving on the rotary switch, so it wasnt going into 'resistance'. i desoldered the shuts to gain access and luckily it was only the cam-screw that had come loose.Fairly clean inside- although some wings off a fly were in there!
The insulator for the heavy shunt/coil had come off- the paxolin and nut/screw were rattling around in the case. Battery terminals perfect.
