Default Re: A13TA Transistors-odd readings on DMM

A further comment. The odd readings I was getting on my M3800DMM the other day was because the Battery (for once I had used a Zinc PP3 rather than an Alkaline one!) was virtually flat -it measured <4v on an analogue meter - The display was rather dim on the DMM, too, and I was Dim not to realise the battery was flat!. A replacement Alkaline PP3 restored correct operation and sensible readings!
