Re: Fluke 70 Series LCD Blotch Dilemma
Good job, glad you got it working though like with a mucky patch on your glasses the display would drive me nuts.
" I now understand why Flukes became the meters of choice..." they are pretty nifty, the bar graph is a useful tool and the protection is good. Old Fluke meter's are affordable too and will last longer than several cheap DMM's. Andy.

Re: Fluke 70 Series LCD Blotch Dilemma
Ah but will they last as long as the AVO, or do LCDs have a finite life?

Re: Fluke 70 Series LCD Blotch Dilemma
Fair point Stuart. As it happens my AVO 8 and the Fluke 75 were made in 1985 & 1986 respectively and I rather suspect they'll both out last me by some margin so I'm happy elther way!
