Thanks John.

Could you please confirm the last three digits: is it really 185 or could it be 158 ?

The zero setting problem is usually batteries, or dirty connections thereto. Could be internal but isn't normally. A new 1.5 volt battery and perhaps a tickle with the emery cloth should fix the problem for the 10kohm and 100kohm ranges.

Your "little one" sounds like a Multiminor. Range selector knob on the left with ohms zeroing knob immediately above. Nice little workhorse.
