CoilCraft says:
"The Hewlett Packard HP4191A is emerging as the new
standard for inductance measurements of RF coils. The
HP4191A has an accuracy that can be better than 1%"
I guess I won't be trading my 4191A in for a GDO anytime
soon, although I am puzzled why my GDO can't read grid dips
by holding it near socket pins of transmitting tubes.
The HP4191A shows negligible difference between identical
suppressors, one made with nichrome and the other tinned
copper, at VHF.
